    Brexit caused Jaguar sales to slump in 2015 as well:

    Why does it have to be either/or? There are likely other factors like slump in quality etc. but they are mostly internal and you won't hear the CEO quoting them.

    What a bunch of idiots.

    Blue passports soon enough, all will be good. Well sort of. We'll get by. Maybe. We've had tougher days. The nights are getting long, cold, & dark. It's their fault. etc etc...

    Thelma and Louise should have driven a Jaguar off the cliff because that's what this country is now embarking on.

    It's *until at least Xmas*, could well go on after that. Thjats the shortest possible time it could run. If the news in November about a Brexit deal is good then they can reconsider.

    Holding pattern for Brexit news and because laying off the workforce prior to xmas is not a nice thing to do and they would get hammered in the papers.
