One sort of assumes they didn't want to control it.
Then the Public told them they would vote for extreme parties if they didn't.
Now its back on the priority list.Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.Comment

Toyota to invest £240m in UK plant at Burnaston - BBC News
The worlds largest car manufacturer is clearly unconcerned.
GDP was already meant to be 6% down by now with a million more out of work, it's the same bedwetters making these tulipe predictions.Comment

£240million? Wow, that's almost 5 days worth of investment in the NHS that Vote Leave pledged/promised.
...I guess we'll have to wait until article 50 is invoked and discussions start, and then see what deal is struck. Maybe come back in 2+ years and see what promises of Vote Leave actually get delivered.…Maybe we ain’t that young anymoreComment

Interesting.
But the only people stopping us revoking that rule is us as in the uk and the eu.
It would clearly be beneficial to do that mainly for the sake of the affected citizens in that particular case.
But the eu demands the rules are obeyed regardless of whether they achieve their intended purpose or not.
And i am not a big fan of that point of view.Comment

You're so stupid that this is the second link you've posted which makes the opposite point to that you want to make.
From your own link:
"Johan van Zyl, chief executive of Toyota Motor Europe, said the investment showed that the company was doing all it could to make Burnaston more competitive.
However, he warned: "Continued tariff-and-barrier free market access between the UK and Europe that is predictable and uncomplicated will be vital for future success."
So the article is right that tariffs will probably affect the car industry.
But if you were a proper businessman and not a pish-artist you could have worked out yourself that that tariffs on mid-market cars with thin profit margins would probably not be the best move for the industry.
And neither will the fallen pound compensate since up to 60% of components are imported in complex cross-border supply chains.Hard Brexit now!
