Did you queue up to offer to lose your job if we quit the EU? I suspect
that very few people would have done so.

Yes it damn well matters to me and everyone in the company. Instead of
growing the company we will remain at the same size for the foreseeable
future. We are lucky that, so far, we are not losing current contracts
but some of our customers are going to have lots of problems and could
shrink or fold.


A lot of our European work dried up a while back.

It was expected to return, but I would be very doubtful if we are
selected against competition within the EU.

As long as the idiots who can only see things in simplistic terms are
happy, then everythings o/k isn't it?

What's a few hundred Brt's on the dole if I can buy myself a tub of
sodium chlorate and a 2kW vaccum cleaner?

Sadly it seems like the flag wavers might have to splash out a bit now
though, the Union Jack isn't as relevant any more!

Onward & Upward!

Just put me down for a Scot's phrasebook :-)
