Many of them are remunerated excessively for what they do, but that is a red herring. The point is that taking decisions has become much more difficult, because of the uncertainty caused by the Brexit vote, and the chances of getting it badly wrong are suddenly much higher.
But decisions still need to be made, good time bad times and uncertain times. In times of chance, fortunes are made and professional business people paid and rewarded as such to take advantage of situations as they see fit. They still have to act and decide and manage. A decision not to do anything is still a decision but purely based on 'things are uncertain we don't know what to do' is a bit of an 'Ooh betty' moment. Fact is, a rationale and justifiable decision still needs to be made.
Would appear a country with a population of 64m wont be attractive to investors and/or companies wishing to trade and sell their goods. Nope. Not attractive at all.
Posted this before but here it is again. 11 countries just for starters queuing up to open post-Brexit trade deals with the UK before we've even started the EU withdrawal process. 11 Countries Gearing Up to Strike Trade Deals With Britain | Heat Street The next Chancellor should slash corporation tax to the lowest level in Europe. Osborne talked of 15%. I hope his successor will do much better than that. The trickle will become a flood.
I'm afraid some on here just will not see anything as a positive Just received another order from the EU, must dash - not lying either, 2 mins ago :Finger:
That's not the case - one of them used the referendum as an excuse to leave without notice the other was going home anyway
Unfortunately, that will become the case. You can pick up any manufactured item you like and you will see a CE mark on it. Meaning it complies to European standards, meaning it meets all the requirements of that "red tape" the Leavers were banging on about. So if Boris and Co want to ditch the red tape and go back to a presumably, less onerous, less safe, BSI kite mark then Thats a new standard manufacturers have to comply to, which is more cost. Why bother for 64 million people when you can hit 500million with the one standard? Even if products are built to the same standard, their performance will likely end up being measured differently, which is more paperwork and cost. I have mostly worked for European companies and throughout that time they showed great reluctance in adjusting what they do for the non legislated for, custom and practice foibles of the U.K. market. Or are we just going to keep following the EU rules?
There's so much he said she said going on what do you do to get back to the truth in either sides rhetoric ? It's almost impossible and then if you do think you understand what's occurring someone will have a different opinion There's truth and lies in all of it
