Losing work as a result of Brexit

[HoHoHo]

Well, that's two pretty large and profitable jobs we lost this week as a direct result of Brexit

They were both confirmed earlier in the year however have now been pulled as a result of overseas distributors withdrawing support for UK companies and the market changing.

We're still very strong and will just have to work a bit harder to make up the difference. I was worried before the vote for this very reason and I say to those who suggest it won't have any influence on UK business you are wrong IMO.

I hope those who voted out feel warm and snug tonight and their jobs are safe

Maybe wrong for you but you're not "everyone".

TX.

PS one swallow does not a summer make, you've lost 2 jobs ffs.

I appreciate one swallow doesn't make a summer and I don't remember saying 'everyone'

Personally I don't like losing any work but clearly you are far richer than I am, let's hope it doesn't have a negative affect on your business.

Oh, and thanks for the ffs........great finish.

You haven't lost jobs "because of Brexit", you've lost jobs because someone either doesn't understand, or is making a knee-jerk reaction to, Brexit.

Vastly different IMHO.

It's far too early to tell how actual Brexit will affect the UK.

These are lost as a direct result of Brexit, knee-jerk or not.

Out of interest, what area of business are you in?

We design and build exhibition stands

Edited to clarify, I'm asking about now, not in 2017 as has been said we don't know exactly what will happen.

I suspect that given 6 months we'll have a much better idea where we stand.
