> After brexit takes place, any EU citizen I wish to employ will have to go through the Tier 2 visa route.

How do you know that?

Politically, the Prime Minister is standing firmly behind the "End Freedom of Movement" crowd. There's been no discussion of any alternative immigration process besides the existing visa process.

It's obviously not a certainty that that will be the case, but so far most signs point to it.

Not my understanding. Care to place a wager?

I’m not betting on anything now we’ve entered the math.random timeline.

Out of interest what are you expecting to see?

Nobody knows for sure yet, and we might still get the EEA with free movement; but anti-immigration hostility was a big driver for the Brexit vote so some sections of the Tory party may not agree to this.
Because one of the primary goals for the Brexit campaign was restricting freedom of movement from the EU.
