Re: They need us more than we need them

They need us more than we need them, don't forget we are the most attractive country in europe for tech.

When did that happen? I must have blinked. It certainly wasn't that case in the 1990's as Ireland was the preferred place to locate - in part because even then people were uncertain about the UK's dithering over the EU - The UK media, Farage et al have been spouting anti-EU stories for decades. Suspect "the EU" was perceived to be a more politically correct way of perpetuating the myth of the 'natural superiority' of the English over those Continental's; especially the Germans and French.
