So why is the UK economy still so bad? I very much doubt that those eeking out a winter feeling cold and mold, care very much about this.
The people who supported Brexit are no better off and in many ways, worse off.

The Tories and Labour are like my ex wife, the money comes in and it goes out in a second. In fact my ex was never in credit, her pay just reduced her over draft, she had two accounts , one paying into the other, she was at Barclays, the worst bank in the world. I was screwing her, so was Barclays. They say money is the main cause of break up, so true, you cant bail out idiots forever.

It has already been posted that the EU has also benefited from the huge increase in jobs in the Financial Sector.
Edit perhaps you don't remember this. "_There have been comments that the EU has also benefitted by the fast growths in the investment industry globally. And that the final cost to the City could be much higher depending on the outcome of Brexit._"
Why two posts on the same thing??

Really glad the UK left the EU. Nothing good came from membership.
We handed over £9.5 billion a year to be worse off and not in charge of our own laws.

The people who supported Brexit are no better off and in many ways, worse off. From the link in the OP: .. .financial analyst David Buik said London remains far and away the continent's pre-eminent financial centre in comparison with "Mickey Mouse" Paris and Amsterdam. Mr Buik was commenting on the findings of a new report by the European Union...
It would seem the EU agree, Brexit has been great for the continent's pre-eminent financial centre.

City of culture saw Thousands of pounds from the EU continually invested in Liverpool for a number of years. There were a number of advantages from being a member of the largest single market in the world, easily ignored by the right-wing power mad controller Brexit voters. You know the type, they are the ones where everything and everyone is wrong and they misguidedly believe that they have all the answer to everything.

So how does this make the general welfare of the people of the UK better, as per all those promises? How does it defy the tragic economic situation you find yourself in? It seems Mr. Buik cant make up his mind.

Silly biased individuals like himself need to be exposed and for the best part ignored. The situation has not yet found its base, only after Brexit is sorted will the UK know the situation in terms of the financial sector regardless of what some unknown "Micky Mouse" style so called financial analyst claims.

The thread is discussing the ' fact' that the EU say, London remains the continent's pre-eminent financial centre, and by some margin. I understand why you would rather not comment on this.

My point is that Mr. Buik is not a dependable commentator. Please reply to my previous point...so what? How does this help John and Jane Doe struggling with paying the mortgage or childcare? As i remember the issue, no one said London would lose its star rating post Brexit. It was said that it would lose staff and accrue competition which would erode its primary position. This has happened.

However, if you don't trust what the EU says, and who could blame you, there are plenty of other financial bodies you could google - linkLondon has breezed past its Continental rivals to retain the title of Europe’s top financial hub and second in the world only to New York, research shared exclusively with City A.M. shows. You will notice the top EU financial centre is Paris, at number 11.

Oracle, Oracle... Oh dear. It would seem Oracle and See2 have gone. Perhaps to read up on their subject, very wise.

I distinctly remember you gloating how Amsterdam and Paris were snatching jobs from London (even though the number was nowhere near the purported figures of project fear), I also remember you gloating when Amsterdam overtook London for its share-trading. You revelled in this and tried to wind posters up. Now you are on here playing whataboutery when you get information you find hard to stomach.
