HSBC will make move decision 'in months not years' - BBC News

HSBC says it will make its decision whether to move its headquarters out of the UK within months rather than years.

I am not really convinced that they have any intention of going anywhere. My view is that they got caught doing some naughty things that they ought not have done and didn't like it. Added to that the increase in bank Levy and they are in a sulk. Seems, the people who cause the financial problems of the world don't much like it when someone does it to them.

As for only taking 250 of the 48,000 staff with them, are they seriously considering downsizing or pulling out the UK totally? I can't imagine them closing all their branches, losing all that revenue they make from the UK, just crazy talk!

Still, if they want to go, let them sod off and don't blink about it. About time we showed these businesses and directors who have got too big for their boots that we don't need them. We managed before HSBC, we'd manage after.

I am a very lucky guy to now have 4 wonderful grandchildren and so need a picture of them all together, one day, when they are all that much older, I’d love to do a trip with  them all to Disney, it’ll be totally magical to see their faces light up! Perhaps I need to buy more lottery tickets? Maybe I should stop buying lottery tickets? Adam has been add...
