That's after Red Robbio had destroyed British Leyland.

I doh't see why Nissan can't be given many concessions.
All their employees are going to pay income tax and spend money to help the economy.

Amazon and Google and Microsoft and others pay very little tax.
Curtesy of the Government.

Well you can but hope
The BBC did a wise thing relocating to Salford, Greater Manchester. Lancs
The cost of living and house are much cheaper UP North and poeple more friendly.

People in high unemployment arrears would love a chance to do a 'fair day's work for a fair day's pay.' They have stopped wearing Flat Caps and keeping a ferret up their trousers and no longer eat 'Tripe and onions.
Champers and Fillet Steak now.

And..It is not grim "up north.
You can see the most beautiful landscapes in UK.
The Pennines The Lake District The West Coast.

Yorkshire is not bad either.

As it is the government have said they have not offered financial incentives maybe they have offered guarantees of some kind... Who knows.

Quite honestly i don't care what they offered i hope where possible they do the same with other massive employers to safeguard jobs especially in the north.

I agree...well done theresa

it is better then borrowing money for world aid and giving it to countries who do not need it, or squander it on non- essentials

Re: Nissan

Interesting that one day the British public are complaining that large industries re not paying their taxes and the next that the British govt are bribing large industries to stay in the UK.
Either you uphold proper business relationships or you don't. It cuts both ways.

Sure Nissan can be bribed to stay...and that all other large businesses expect the same deal even before the govt knows it can provide the results it has promised.
Seems a very risky way to provide security...

Hi

I think perhaps you are getting a trifle confused on how Industry and Governments react.

All these things going round in your head, are you sure that they are not making you Dizzy?
