Well, they have some outstanding private universities filled with undergraduates and graduates coming from a small number of private elite schools as well as lots of foreign researchers, who are now wondering whether it wouldn't be better for them to further their career in other parts of the world.
Expect the academic output coming from English universities to drop.
I see there is another petition going around calling for Stuart Pearce to be allowed to re-take his penalty in the 1990 World Cup semi-final, and keep taking it until he gets the desired result certain people wanted. It might be a joke, but what is the difference?
They may have to come back - they may not be allowed to continue working in Europe without a visa after the exist - no more freedom to work anywhere in the EU.
Could affect a large number of people.
I think the loss of freedom of movement of labour in the EU would affect unskilled people more than skilled. There are plenty of non-EU in-demand skilled workers working in the EU. There are American bankers working in London and there will be British bankers in Frankfurt after the UK withdraws from the EU.
Unskilled Britons will lose the freedom of movement and less likely to get visas for other countries, and have no choice and will remain in a probably shrinking British economy. The skilled with internationally in-demand skills will be the ones who would be able to get visas to move abroad to Sydney, Frankfurt, New York & where ever.
