The Primark case is a bit different, though. That is the first I am aware of where the choice of "move to the EU or lose your job" has been quite so starkly presented.


If this relates to the link by Raggytash in the Brexit discussion, what he actually said was: Today Primark has informed 200 of it's staff they must move to Dublin or face redundancy.
"face redundancy" is not quite as stark as your comment "lose your job".
In turn, the comment Today Primark has informed 200 of it's staff they must move to Dublin or face redundancy. is more stark than what the Guardian actually said: Reading-based staff have been offered the chance to relocate to Ireland in a reorganisation intended to help the company’s push for international expansion, but they have also been told they may face redundancy as a “last resort” if they do not. although the headline to the story is more in line with Raggytash's comment.

It's like Chinese whispers. The further you are from the original message, the more that message changes.
