"Ross McEwan said 150 RBS staff had been deployed to Amsterdam to set up a new operation serving the bank's European customers ahead of a no-deal scenario."

Doesn't mention any job losses?

Given RBS bought ABN, some time ago (which turned out not to be such a great deal), I’m not convinced this is anything new.

Certainly not likely to be RBS UK jobs moving overseas as implied.

How the heck does someone like Jim Oneill still have a career after his f up in that deal and subsequent adviser on the RBS privatisation. The more he f ups the more he gets paid.

"Britain’s leading role in evaluating new medicines for sale to patients across the EU has collapsed with no more work coming from Europe because of Brexit, it has emerged.

The decision by the European Medicines Agency to cut Britain out of its contracts seven months ahead of Brexit is a devastating blow to British pharmaceutical companies already reeling from the loss of the EMA’s HQ in London and with it 900 jobs."

European medicines agency: part of the EU so what a surprise.

Yep, the EU 'taking back' business to the other side of the channel...

We've of course 'got our country back' (apparently), but they are laughing in our faces!

We'll also of course open up our own replicate 'agency' (at great cost), and in order to 'do business' with the EU (our current major trading partner) pay millions to comply with the same regulations that we have now for zilch...

'Jobs for the boys/girls' of course, but a further drain on the bankrupt UK economy as a whole...

Just as planned by those behind the leave campaign!
