In most countries people migrate to the bigger cities. Saskatchewan moving to Calgary for example. But in England once you're in Saskachewan, you stay there for generations. So even if the EU is good for businesses and head offices in London. 90% of the population is not there.

Not that it skews what you're saying much, but population of London is ~8.5 million and it's metro population is pushing 14 million.
