Post-Brexit trade: UK extends EU-era steel protections
The government overrules its post-Brexit trade advisers to keep EU-era limits on products.www.bbc.co.uk
I have to hand it to Nissan, leveraging their position to a total of £200m in Govt subsidies and making themselves the Brexit poster boy.
While Brexit is such a political fault line, the Govt cannot afford for Nissan Sunderland to fail, which puts the company in a strong position for future subsidies. Well played.
Just wait for BMW to speak to Merkel……….Sunak's star fades as the furlough starts to fall away and the true job devastation manifests itself and he has to fess up the London is losing out to the EU
Just wait for BMW to speak to Merkel……….
I assume the price for Nissan of this enormous subsidy was their silence throughout the 2006-10 Brexit wars.what is also not trumpeted is that since Brexit NISSAN has axed 1500 posts. They employed quite a bit of fixed contract labour which - at the end of contracts - they have chosen not to renew. Whilst thats not making people redundant it is jobs that are no longer there. That is why the lads who work there are pessimistic despite this announcement because over all its a net deficit in jobs which they think will continue to accelerate.
Not sure why anyone buys bottled water outside of London. Proper scam.Frostie taking to the Irish Times to complain about the rubbish deal he negotiated and refuses to help facilitate in NI.
I‘d link to the article but you all know what he says/is whining about.
In other news skiing trips for kids likely to be nixed because of Brexit. Bit like ERASMUS, rock bands...add your own to the list.
UK is also banning bottled water from Europe in January, they have to get it tested by a several new bodies we hope to create in January (fat chance). If by some miracle they do appear we will be spending millions to assure the British public it is indeed...water.
Still, lucky that we are getting rid of all that red tape and regulation, eh?
Ever been to Southport?Not sure why anyone buys bottled water outside of London. Proper scam.
Yes. With bottled tap water from home.Ever been to Southport?
Yes. With bottled tap water from home.
Whilst we’re having a laugh about it, I really do think that bottled water shouldn’t be needed in this country.I take mine in a plastic bag as I can't afford a bottle. I put a peeled carrot in the water so it looks like a goldfish I won at the fair and covers my extreme poverty
We certainly shouldn’t need to import it.Whilst we’re having a laugh about it, I really do think that bottled water shouldn’t be needed in this country.
