An area that voted heavily to leave. Irony.

But it was only part of the reason. Their forecast for sales isn’t as good as they thought so don’t see that making it there is viable. Funny that everyone focuses on the Brexit part hey?

And no job losses by the way. That’s kept quiet too.

Indeed, Sunderland heavily voted leave. Was watching on Sky news a leave voter who works for Nissan being interviewed, he said Nissan should leave if they wanted to and not manufacturing Xtrail doesn't have anything to do with Brexit. As I said before, the only way to know is a no deal, else UK will be divided for ever or at least for a long time.

this seizing on every news piece of lost jobs relating to brexit is not only silly no one believes it anymore. Project fear has lost its mojo due to over exposure. However speaking as someone who at least is capable of judgement as opposed to mindlessly quoting whatever the guardian or independent journalists throw out. Do I think jobs will be lost because of brexit ? Of course they will you cannot disengage from 40 years of rule by the EU without an impact. But new jobs will be created and personal view is we will be better off. However we won't be better off if we are negative. What is unnecessarly harming the economy is brexit uncertainty which is directly caused by our squabbling politicians. Wilki and I are on different sides of the brexit argument but we have been warning of this for a good six months now. The politicians need to grow up strike a deal that respects the result but minimises short term disruption (like Theresa Mays deal for example) get us out the EU and work together for the benefit of the country. Finally everyone is focussing on the econmic aspects that's important but it's not the only reason we voted to leave the EU

Uncertainty cannot harm business as all businesses operate in uncertain waters, that's the gist of businesses, ask Rees Mogg

No 10 is refusing to disclose what state support has been given to Nissan to convince the car manufacturer to boost production at its Sunderland plant despite its worries about Brexit. Downing Street insisted there was no “sweetheart deal” with the Japanese company, but acknowledged that Theresa May had given some assurances to the wider industry that it would be protected from the impact of the UK’s withdrawal from the EU ...

No 10 refused to say what has been promised to the car industry or to say whether any public money was involved, although it signalled that it had not made any declaration to the EU about a proposal to offer state aid. “The assurances are that we will get the best possible deal from leaving the EU,” May’s deputy official spokesman said. “There was no special deal for Nissan.”

Oh dear

Of course business is a risk but brexit uncertainty is adding to that risk uneccessarily Vish. At least Vish although I disagree with you often you do have a brain and are capable of reasoning yourself.

Don't always agree with everyone but always better to engage with people of at least moderate intelligence. To do otherwise is a waste of time.

Was just repeating what your buddy Rees Mogg said earlier in the day, never heard such crap.
