However, I do find it amusing that people who want to embrace the EU don't want France to get this work! This cracks me up!

l am not a fan of the EU but l ain't no fan of Brexit either but its happening and that is it so the least we can do is start to put our companies first as Germany and France would most certainly do that in their own backyard.

Speaking to BBC Radio 4’s Today programme on Thursday morning, the chief executive of De La Rue, Martin Sutherland, challenged the prime minister or the home secretary to “come to my factory and explain my dedicated workforce why they think this is a sensible decision to offshore the manufacture of a British icon”.
Quote:
The Labour MP John Spellar said “no other EU country behaves like this”, claiming others “support their industry”. Such decisions had driven the Brexit vote, he said.
