Bulletguy Posted January 30, 2019 Share Posted January 30, 2019 Barclays is moving €190 billion (£166bn) of assets to Dublin because it "cannot wait any longer" to implement its Brexit contingency plan. The High Court, which has approved the move, says the move involves 5,000 clients. The bank had to ask the High Court for approval to transfer the business which took place in branches in Germany, France, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands, Portugal and Sweden for corporate banking, investment banking and some wealthy private clients. https://www.bbc.com/news/business-47060676 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Banking is moving out due to Brexit losing them 'passporting' facilities necessary to function, and that will lose the UK Exchequer billions every year in lost revenue. That leads to higher taxes, lower spending, or more borrowing. Not to mention the loss of many jobs in some cases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It appears your Remoaner experts got it WRONG AGAIN with their 65,000 London bank job losses predictions :D ............ "But reports about banks such as Morgan Stanley, Barclays and Bank of America moving, or creating, hundreds rather than thousands of jobs at those sites suggest the total affected in the City is much smaller than the 65,000 or so predicted by some immediately after the referendum." https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-47063405 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The billions per annum lost has to be made up from somewhere. Given choice i'd prefer any draconian punitive taxation to claw that money back was apportioned solely to selfish Brexit voters like you who only think of yourselves who inflicted this suffering on millions of blameless innocent victims in your mindless quest for dragging us all over the cliff edge.

Barclays isn't the only bank to have upped sticks and gone and whilst they say for themselves, "few jobs in London are expected to be affected", many others in banking have lost jobs and you cannot deny that (though you will) as it's been widely reported. As has been pointed out to you many times, Barclays moving €190 billion out to Dublin is a loss to the Exchequer, not forgetting the €900 billion from other banks which has now gone to Frankfurt......remember this was what you once parroted as "taking back control" but instead it you've lost control....even managing to chase some of it off to your arch 'enemy', the EU!
