Hillman Minx, Austin Allegro ? :D :D

B****$ks

An interview was terminated as it was not on the subject requested.

Yet another wealthy person has gone to a tax haven.

What have either to do with Brexit????

No - I stand by that the "few people" might as well be none at all.

Who knows - who cares?

All irrelevant, we had a referendum, one of the largest Democratic processes in modern British history - there is no new information, except blatant scaremongering.

The we're isolated from Europe i find particularly interesting. Because we all know that Brexit will draw us closer to the bosom of the EU.

Is there anyway for you to show that even if we were to remain in the EU that Japanese companies would not repatriate jobs to Japan now that there is a free trade deal with the EU in place?

Have you considered that employment rules and regulations in Japan may make it more profitable to those companies to repatriate jobs?

It is never a plain simple "its because of or partly due to" Brexit.

So why are remainers so against it?

The man has clearly stated that one reason NOT to invest in the UK is due to it's distance from Europe, now, that could be logistically or it could be distance we don't know.

The same man then is a prominent advocate for a process which may well distance ourselves further from the EU (in the logistical sense)

You don't see a correlation as to how this is to do with Brexit ?

I did quote the relevant part of your post but as you missed it here it is again.



If you don't even understand what you are posting how do you expect anyone else to?

Any need for personal digs?

That particular part of the post was sarcasm.

Hmm. Disputable. The Swindon Honda car workers didn't think their factory would close due to Brexit. It is now. Very sad news.

Is it down to Brexit?

Or is it down to the FTA Japan just signed with the EU which means they no longer have to have a presence in the EU to sell their cars tariff free. So they can take their manufacturing back to the UK reduce costs, employ Japanese workers and boost their own economy.

In Free Trade Globalisation, there are winners and losers.

This would have happened regardless of Brexit.

not an issue

You think they don’t have supply chain in Japan?

Not something that can be done easily to a complex JIT supply chain in a short time period.
