Reed Group sees 8% increase in job adverts since Brexit

The Chairman of recruitment company, the Reed Group, says that 150k more jobs were added to their website compared to the same period last year. This represents an 8% increase over last year.

Research by Reed Group shows that 83% of firms have no plans to freeze recruitment following the Leave vote in the EU referendum and for most it is business as usual. The research doesn't appear to say whether this is more or less than before the referendum but if it was more it would have been headline news given that James Reed supported the Remain campaign.

Reed expects the weaker pound to increase jobs in tourism and hospitality and says that jobs growth is across all sectors.

The business side of things is looking good but the delay in actually Brexiting is going to cost us: as potential new traders get bored waiting, as we get sucked even more into the expensive death throes of EU etc.
Instead of passing an act of Parliament right now and saying "bye bye" then watching the EU line up with the other hopeful countries (which it surely will do) we are letting "eurosceptic tories" delay, confuse, fudge and b***er about - anything to avoid leaving. Time for sheeple-pressure on these liars methinks.
