        Brexit will be detrimental to the progress of UK science and collaborations! E.g. @GalileoGNSS

        You're clearly about 12, so I understand why you are confused, but the EU is very recent and before it, scientists from all over the world worked together very well. Recently, an EU scientist declared that women did not belong in science. I'm guessing you agree with that.

        Skilled labour and professions should have little difficulty in meeting the criteria for a work permit. We are talking about a maximum of a few dozen individuals, not tens of thousands of unskilled migrants.

        There’s more than just a “few dozen” researchers and STEM students who come to the UK to do research... You can’t say they won’t have difficulty coming here because we don’t know the ins and outs of Brexit because its a mess! Either way it won’t be near as easy as it is now.

        If they went to work elsewhere in the developed world, USA, Japan, Australia, they would need a work permit. My wife, who is a professor secured one within 6 weeks when we moved to Japan. It's not a big deal.

        Absolute rubbish! I am a 72yo Physicist. Science flourished before the EU. Collaboration, people could work and study in other countries and it was all free of EU interference and pseudo funding!

        I'm a scientist. Right now I can freely work in the UK. We have been told that, post-Brexit, we will be treated the same as other non-EU citizens, meaning I will have less freedom to work in the UK. It am therefore more likely to leave and UK science will suffer as a result.

        No it won’t! You do not need to worry. The EU might choose to ‘punish’ the U.K. in the short term but it won’t work!

        They've been actively trying to Remain for the last two years, now they've realised they may have to fight for their funding after Brexit and are beginning to panic. As far as I'm concerned they can shove it!

        British Nobel scientists had the same individual referendum vote as every other British citizen; they must learn to live with democracy.

        It’s still democracy; they, like you, must learn to live with it. Their protests, along with those thousands who walked through London this weekend, are heard but still do not stand up against the silent majority of the referendum.

        The referendum was advisory. The incompetent/corrupt government implemented a result which was a slim margin of victory achieved by election fraud, foreign interference and lies.

        Just watched that , 97% say Brexit is a bad idea, but it won’t matter to most people, we won’t need scientists when we have blue passports
