Not going to improve either, as there is no appetite for change in the U.K.

Brexit blues The roots of the UK stock market’s decline are deep. But one significant element dates back seven years. Brexit was such a divisive issue that many people struggle to assess its economic impact objectively. Still, the financial markets are full of hard-headed profit seekers and their immediate assessment of the vote was to mark down the value of sterling significantly. The pound touched $1.50 just before the referendum result was announced, a level it has never regained; at the time of writing it is just over $1.20. The most plausible reason is that international investors feel that the UK’s economic outlook has deteriorated. So far that assessment has proved to be correct. The UK was the fastest-growing economy in terms of gross domestic product per head in the G7 between 1980 and 2007, and again between 2010 and 2016. But between 2016 and 2022, it dropped to fifth place out of the seven, behind France, Germany and Italy, all EU members.

well if you read the article it may help - certainly nobody pre-2016 claimed London's financial services were a backwater - not sure what could have happened between now and then that could change things - I mean financial services were not even included in the WA. Everything that they were told would happen is coming to pass

Calder is consistent in mentioning this at every opportunity, partly because he wants people to understand that it's not the travel operators who created much of the problem.
