I didn't anything of see those televised debates, but the internet almost exploded last night with jokes over May's performance. Even Conservative supporters were saying how poor and unconvincing she was and how she was jeered by the studio audience. Some people are starting to think that even Corbyn has a chance against her, as that's apparently how bad her TV appearance was.

Very unlikely. American companies want/need to be in the EU. The whole point of having any European base is to enjoy the benefits of being in the EU.

What will probably happen is opposite to what you say. American companies in the UK will relocate to Ireland so that they can stay in the EU.

Laura Kuenssberg, Tory Cheerleader Rolleyes BBC's Political Editor:

"What they'll glean, though, from snippets and headlines is a sense of how this campaign has changed, written on the leaders' faces. Jeremy Corbyn, more comfortable, more assured, with better prepared answers. Theresa May, really having to explain herself."
Ooops, it seems that Corbyn has done a 'Diane Abbott'. Surprised Rolleyes

Jeremy Corbyn struggles over cost of childcare policy
Anti-Theresa May song ‘banned by radios’ makes its way up the charts


(banned by radios? Surprised Are the machines finally taking over? eek Rolleyes )

Indeed - some financial firms have, I believe, already started moving staff to/enlarging offices in other EU States.

Also, with 'no deal', the Likes of Nissan et al will likely be offski in the blink of an eye.

None of the companies you name have moved to the UK from Ireland, so those examples don't support your claim.

What's more, Snap Inc are not 'moving over here' as you stated. That's false.

From Snap Inc's own blog (10 Jan 2017): "Today, the media reported that we selected London as our international HQ. That is not true. We have one HQ, in Venice (California)."
Nissan will not move they have pumped billions into sunderland they will not let that go so easily. all the banks and nissan are negoiating Wink thats how it works
