Dyson is british.

Their Seat is moving to singapore, not london.

I mention it in jape, in response to a meme posted by another user and you ask me if i'm fixated.

Am i missing something, or is this just your attempt at being coy?
No, you're not missing anything.  The only problem here is thinking Baruch might be within a cubic light year of an actual point.

Are you afraid that with Brexit all Belgian companies will flee EU tyranny for British shores?

Lol

Dyson does have offices in Antwerp.  If it were a British company and they wanted to expand in Britain after Brexit, then it is none of your business.  Singapore?  Might be the new Hong Kong that is safer than Taipei.

So i am not allowed to make light of it? To formulate an opinion?
Don't ansWer that: rhetorical.

The less you know about something, and the less it is "your business", the more you seem to talk about it,  baruch.

It might be worth noting that some of the wealthier Brits supporting Brexit have moved their investments to Ireland (which would stay in the EU).  https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/dec/25/uk-banks-financial-firms-moving-ireland

They know that being financially engaged with the EU is the smart move.

Ireland is very corrupt.  That is why they suffered during the 2008 downturn.  Fake accounting books.

barring an extension, of course.

Hard to say what will happen.  This is why the status quo wins most times, including when it shouldn't.

Meanwhile war brews over Venezuela.  Are you ready for your first war in Europe since Kosovo?  Will it be a civil war?

There is never anything civil about War ;)
I can't help but think of an old I'm Sorry I'll Read That Again gag about civil war:

"Oh no, no trouble at all, do go right ahead."
"I do thank you."  *WHONK*

I put out a humorous video from GB, about one week after Brexit.  Enjoy.  Belgium is next ;-(
