Yes, and as a result of Brexit, many of the corporations that were listed on the LSE headed towards other countries in the EU.

With respect, I got my national insrance number in the UK in 1975, have lived and worked there three times, and receive a British pension.

I now live in Ireland and was in London a few months ago. It looks like a third world country now.

I voted for Scotish Indepenence when I lived there, and I do not agree with what progressivism has become. I voted for Labour the last time I was living in London but I would not vote that way again. Possibly, if I was living there now, I would vote for the new Reform party.

I have no time for either the left or the rright. They are all still caught up in 20th century politics and can't see the wood for the trees.

I will read your article later and comment there.
