When Jamie Dimon said a hard Brexit would be a disaster for the UK earlier this year, the JPMorgan chief executive was articulating a view that is commonly held among London’s investment bankers. But since Boris Johnson became prime minister, some senior bankers who were previously staunchly anti-Brexit now privately say their opinions have changed.

We need to get it done; the inertia is worse than a no deal,” the head of one large investment bank recently said, despite once warning of the dangers of such an outcome. Another spoke admiringly of Mr Johnson, comparing him to Winston Churchill, and said: “He has come in with a mission. You cannot keep going on and on without a solution. I’m now more on the side of taking us out and planning for the future.”

Yes every word. It was merely an attention grabbing headline - you fell for it. The main thrust of the story is that the banks have been preparing for a no-deal for years and just want the country to get on with it (Brexit whatever the flavour).
The last paragraph sums up the story saying that just a handful of wealthy banker opinions should NOT be taken that support has shifted towards Brexit and that many believe "Britain is on the brink of a massive act of self harm..."

Bodd's link also says:
"Cynics might also observe that highly paid investment bank executives will feel little personal pain in the event of a hard Brexit, compared, say, with a car factory worker in the north of England or a sheep farmer in Wales."
Multi-millionaire Rice-Pudd, who has set up business in the Republic of Ireland so that he wil have a base in the EU, also doesn't care.

I think this is what your talking about. Correct me if I'm wrong...
Of course, the shifting of opinions among a handful of bankers — no matter how senior — should not be taken as evidence that the City has switched sides. Lots of senior bankers still think Britain is on the brink of a massive act of self-harm. But perhaps Canary Wharf is not such a hotbed of Remainers after all.
Please do correct me.
We all know we don't all agree. But this is as Notchy says a remain leaning news paper.. Just so happens its giving 2 sides of the story in one artical.
I've colour coded it for the hard of reading.

It does John but you back the one who says the North is a Turkey voting for Christmas and that London should be able to stay as it voted to remain
