Because Conservatives didn’t get enough of a majority in the 2017 General Election, they want to have another General Election.
But we can’t have another Referendum, because "the people have spoken!".
Strange, the people "spoke" in 2015 and said who they wanted to run the country for the next five years, but that didn’t stop the Conservatives holding another one in 2017 and now one in 2019.
Seems legit...

Just keep on holding an election until you get the right result, it would appear.

Worldwide car production is being reduced, so outside of Brexit there are problems, temporary shutdowns, and closures.
If the EU were truly interested in a "level playing field", they would stop propping up other EU countries. EG Poland gets 9bn/year, and that's on top of the over £1bn the country gets from the UK, from Poles living here.

Unions aren't an issue, it'a whether Vauxhall can export its cars and import its components in a timely and therefore cost-effective manner.
