{quote} Indeed. It is a cup half full or half empty type of story. On the plus side there is the 25year (which if you consider the 2023 start date is more like 30) commitment to continue to operate a substantial business presence in London and potentially expand that business. On the Minus side is the already announced potential repatriation of some operations back to Frankfurt if the EU clearing business needs to be moved to back inside the EU. Back to the plus side tho, the business of Banking is going to change substantially in the next 20-30...
DB had layoffs since about 2005 I think. Business in general has been on an going efficiency and cost cutting exercise. Advancing technology has played its' part in this too, also realisation that so many companies historically have carried a lot of dead wood and jobs for the boys, especially the larger enterprises. Any streamlining now will be an opportunity to blame Brexit and the positive aspect of 25 year commitment will will be downplayed probably.

Yeah, What really got me interested was when I found out that it was illegal in Europe to even do any research FFS

Maybe its because DB know the EU is a dodo and finance, if anything, will be even more concentrated in London after Brexit.
Bankers normally have the inside track on politics, so they probly know whats gonna happen and are investing accordingly.

You're fighting a system hell bent on brainwashing your kids. They have them for 6 hours every day. The vast majority of parents don't give a shit. The majority don't have any interest in politics. During our GE, the school held a mock election and Labour won. Hmm, I wonder how. My older one was telling me that her friends' parents couldn't be bothered to vote because they didn't care who won. Then another voted for the Green party. I mean WTF. So the system is taking advantage of people's apathy to turn out another generation of liberal snowflakes. Little by little, all to further the end game. They will win eventually when many of the older generations have died out. I am taking my kids out of the State system, but not everyone who cares can do that, I know. Then what?

It is a ongoing project of rewriting history in the US -- democrat areas of Louisiana and Tennessee and other democrat dominated areas are destroying confederate monuments. Some school books dedicate several pages to Clinton and Obama and a couple paragraphs to Washington, Jefferson and other real leaders. The bammers tried to rewrite the history concerning Reagan. Clinton hailed as a great president when in reality it was Gingrich and his contract with America that made his terms in office palatable. He was and is a scumbag.

Did you pick up on more recently David Camerons' part in burying the Cook Report tapes with regard to Ken Carke ? The cesspit is deep and wide.

Yes, I watched it right up to the credits. The main theme was 'anybody alive is untouchable, anybody dead is fair game'.
