You might have an idea but it's based on nothung. JLR and these other big manufacturers are complex global businesses they base businesses locations for all kinds of reasons. Only by being on the board of directors of these companies would you know for sure. Yes the EU is a good place but so is Britain. Before the EU was even thought of many decades ago ford and General Motors based huge car manufacturing in England two of which was Mereyside at Speke and Vauxhall. Another factor is political for example did you know Nissan is ultimately owned by the french government via Renault. I admit I don't understand it but neither do you

I admit I don't understand it but neither do you Of course I know who the shareholders of Nissan are, in fact it is not owned by the Fench government but the French government has controlling votes on the board of directors with about only 15% stake through Renault, but since the sacking of Carlos Ghosn, the Japanese are having much more influence, don't know how much you have followed that story. I did listen to the JLR boss about Brexit recently though, did you?

The car industry world wide is having the biggest shake up since the ford popular in the 30,s. New technology and new entrants to the market dyson google tesla plus the diesel crisis. My car is due for renewal in next year and it's replacement is going to have to last what I buy I will have to think very hard. One thing for sure the internal combustion engine won't be the long term future. I am sure brexit uncertainly is a factor but it's nothing like the major factor affecting the car industry and blaming it on brexit is just silly What has Dyson and Google got to do with the car industry, if anything they would be suppliers. Tesla is in deep shyte and will be taken over rather sooner or later according to me, their distribution is too slow to allow economies of scale. The car industry is quickly turning to electric at the expense of mainly diesel, and JLR is going to produced its i-pace in the EU (Austria) while a new plant is being opened in the EU (Slovakia). Probably nothing to do with Brexit, but I wonder why they would produce there, do you know? I posted a link a few weeks ago about JLR. They’re going to a global manufacturing model and will open plants in India and somewhere else out that way. Making in Austria and Slovakia is part of that and they said it will supplement and get new work in for the British factory. Nothing to do with Brexit and was a strategy that came about before the vote.

According to the article he says a bad brexit deal COULD threaten a £80b investment. What action would you like me to take with this earth shattering news ! Should we cancel brexit ? Should we go for a good brexit deal ?
