Unilever, Britain's third-biggest company, will scrap its London corporate headquarters and make Rotterdam its sole legal home in a blow to Prime Minister Theresa May's government ahead of Brexit.

I don’t know, but Rotter-stan is getting pretty bad, too, so I don’t think they were simply fleeing from Londonistan. Also, the article says they will retain the same level of staffing (for now) in Londonistan, so the decision may really be all about corporate re-structuring.

That's where the Islamic pedophile groomers had their way for decades before the police cracked down.
Don't think the corporate whores have other reasons besides economic for being there?
