    I find this sad but not surprising

    offering courses at a fraction of the price of British universities."

    Seems more of a sales pitch. The exchange rate hasn't been this good for some time. ;)

    If the Brexitwazzocks have their way Google won't even be able to bring in talent from France, and the Scots will need a visa, so don't get too excited...

    good to see old toxic toastie touching his forlocks to Tory elite and fighting to ensure international capitalism continues to gets cheap labour in the UK.

    The Google announcement confirming a massive HQ in the UK and thousands more jobs pretty much kills the Remoaner notion we are going darn the pan. Why aren't they choosing the EU instead, I mean it's so much more viable....

    Because out of the EU they can get away with paying essentially no tax, and then move all of the jobs to India if they don't like what's happening.

    They are about to get slapped pretty hard for 11bn Euros in tax avoidance.

    Considering its free or a nominal amount to enroll in most EU universities I don't think the exchange rate will lure them back.

    What the Rightists tell us is that Brexit is supposed to make less people able to come here, not make less of them want to.

    Great job Brexitards.

    Rugged's only annoyed because his chances of getting anywhere near a skilled job at google is if they need someone to refill the beanbags.

    Like I have said before. If you want workers in Britain to be payed a living wage then start voting for governments that will introduce one.

    So long as you keep voting for governments backed by billionaires who want 90% of the country to earn £6 an hour then that's what you'll get.

    I know that fundamentally you just want to blame foreigners for everything from NHS waiting lists to the dripping tap in your bathroom, but try looking at things a different way for a change.

    of course we need to control the number of people that come here : you believe that too
    overseas students have to be housed and impose a burden on our infrastructure :

    Yeah, those foreign students subsidize out educations, and pay for all of that precious infrastructure they use.

    do you have any facts and figures and details of the housing burden student place especially in London?
    Clearly you are one of the few people that think we have adequate housing and a good level of infrastructure
    He literally just said the opposite.

    the billionaires he talks about, support unlimited immigration to keep wages down, just like toxic toasties does.
