I've quoted at least 3 now.
Nitpicking over Frankfurt or Paris is missing the point. Jobs to the EU is the point.
And why do you need proof of people moving? Plenty of stories now, but the pointless argument was whether any brexiteers here had said "scaremongering, no one will move (to Frankfurt)".
"No one ever ever said it" came the cry. Find proof! Well I have, and they did!
Pre the Brexit vote were any jobs created in the financial sector in any EU country other than the UK?I've quoted at least 3 now.

So what's the problem?
Employment figures are always changing in this sector.
AI and ongoing restructuring is going to decimate the jobs in this sector worldwide and will have a much more significant effect than Brexit.
Brexit certainly won't be a game changer for the city.
Maybe you should move on to another sector that will be decimated by Brexit because you have shot your bolt on this one.

Yep.Have any jobs been created in the EU - at the expense of UK jobs - due to brexit?
That's a yes too.

The facts are they are moving / creating jobs in the EU - not the UK - 100% because of brexit. We are driving investment & our GDP off shore.
Context is indeed everything. And its the elephant in the room which no brexiteer can see, it seems.
It's 2% of their feckin workforce here and isn't even definitively a "move".Context is indeed everything. And its the elephant in the room which no brexiteer can see, it seems.
Jobs get created all over the world in this sector for all manner of reasons. Where has your soapbox been for the last 20yrs? (Hopefully directed at a sector you know something about).
You're a troll desperately clutching at straws. You are a desperate bad news bear and thus far every scaremongering prediction you have clung to has meant bugger all.
You will fill this forum if you start shouting about every role created outside of the UK in the FS sector over the next 5yrs, just as you would have over the last 20. It's utterly, utterly meaningless.
When Citi move 2,250+ jobs from this country as a direct result of Brexit, then come back and say "I told you so". When the Financial Services sector in this country collapses and contributes nothing to the UK I will tell you loud and clear my vote was a grave error.
Until then spend a bit more time trying to find something material to moan about as that will make you look a lot less like Chicken Licken.

I am currently working with three Irish companies that together are looking to create over 1,000 jobs in the UK directly as a result of Brexit. There are many other Irish companies investigating similar. It's not all one way.

So you're effectively saying - stop worrying, no jobs will move from London to e.g. Frankfurt.Employment figures are always changing in this sector.

Why are Irish companies keen to create 1000 jobs as a direct result of Brexit; what's in it for them that's not (necessarily) in it for them in Ireland, post Brexit?

Constant complaints that brexit will guarantee that any UK business that relies on EU exports will up sticks and move to the EU, yet compete blindness to the fact that this is also likely to operate in the opposite direction - EU businesses that rely on UK sales are just as likely to want to move here...
If ever there was an example of partisan blindness here it is.
