Default Crossrail could bankrupt London - says Ken Livingstone

So - learn German and move to Frankfurt.


You don't need to speak German to work in many of the banks here.


My impression is that most educated Germans speak better English than I
do... :-/

[ The first time I went to Germany, I came out of the airport, and tried
to ask a question in German at a newsstand -- whereupon the newsagent
started yelling at me to "speak English!" :-O

It was kind of a relief to go to (former) East Germany (this was just
after unification) where I could practice speaking German without
risking ridicule... ]
