    The car industry is tanking globally.

    I'm surprised you haven't blamed the Carlos Ghosn fiasco on Brexit yet.
    In Germany they're keeping their factories open because when demand rises again in other countries the competition will have been shut down.
    I'm alright Jack

      Honda confirms Swindon car plant closure - BBC News

      Ian Howells, senior vice-president for Honda in Europe, told the BBC: "We're seeing unprecedented change in the industry on a global scale. We have to move very swiftly to electrification of our vehicles because of demand of our customers and legislation."This is not a Brexit-related issue for us, it's being made on the global-related changes I've spoken about.
      "We've always seen Brexit as something we'll get through, but these changes globally are something we will have to respond to. We deeply regret the impact it will have on the Swindon community."
      feck me you boys are desperate.

          He’s a VP of a Japanese company, he understands politics and the culture. They’re leaving, there’s no point one way or the other to wind up 52% of their potential customer base, and culturally they won’t want to wind up the politicians.

          In the end, it really doesn’t matter any more whether it’s in any way related to Brexit or not.

                  One man, one vote? Putin is one man and his vote appears to be the one that counts.

                    Yup, he is the guy who pushed the scales on Brexit and Trump - he will be happier with Brexit though, because it will have far more negative long lasting effect
