More bad news for her and her team today too as the EU are preparing for tenders to leave London and relocate to Europe for the Banking and Medicine industries. Copenhagen, Amsterdam, Milan, Stockholm, Frankfurt, Paris, Barcelona and Dublin are all front runners but there is plenty more in the pipeline. They would be mighty pissed off if they remained in the UK, outside the EU whilst all the knock on jobs that these thing create are left wanting.

Yep, the 27 are uncharacteristically united in their stance on Brexit and May will only have bad news to report over the next few years. Even if you're an avid leaver, the fruits of leaving are some way off, the pain comes first.
The brazen lies told during the campaign will come back to haunt this government, they can make vague references to pain and substitute the word control for reduction, but the great mass of leavers want what they were promised during the referendum and it's becoming obvious to all but the naïve or the wilfully blind that she can't deliver it....
Brexit: People want to scrap EU freedom of movement but continue free trade with Europe, says new UK survey
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/u...ree-trade-europe-keep-uk-survey-a7641541.html
British people want to end freedom of movement but want to keep the benefits of the single market after Brexit, according to a new survey - despite the fact Theresa May has admitted this is not going to happen....
Overall, 68 per cent of participants want to abolish freedom of movement, but at the same time 88 per cent are keen to maintain free trade with the EU.....
The European Parliament's point man for the Brexit negotiations, Guy Verhofstadt, said the United Kingdom would not be allowed to “cherry pick” the benefits of the EU.
“I think it creates an illusion that you can go out of the single market and the customs union and you can cherry pick and still have a number of advantages.
“I think this will not happen. We shall never accept a situation in which it is better to be outside the single market than be a member of the European union,” Mr Verhofstadt said.
...........................................
The debate shouldn't be between leave and remain, it should be between leaver dreamers and leaver realists, between those leavers who believe we can have all that was promised and those leavers who know we won't.
