Re: Where a no deal Brexit would hit hardest

They've all supported Barnier and his nay sayers. They should have stood up for their businesses instead of trying to bully us as a block.

The best way to deal with them is to buy more Toyotas and Nissans

Hi

The EU will remain our major trading partner for years.

A recession in the EU would impact on jobs here.

The average person in the EU is no different to us, they have kids and have to pay the bills.

They are as fed up with their politicians as we are with ours.

... but you wouldn't want to see any, non-politico, eu citizen come out of this badly would you?

Hi

Nissan's parent company is Renault..

The largest single shareholder in Renault is the French Government.

https://group.renault.com/en/finance...n/key-figures/

If you dig deeper many of the Public Owned shares in the company are owned by French Pension Schemes for Government Employees.

Buying more Nissans will be welcomed by the French.

Re: Where a no deal Brexit would hit hardest

These facts appear to be beyond the understanding of the average leave voter. No offence but this thread is proof. Obviously Swim you are an outlier. I cannot believe that posters on this thread would rejoice that people in mainland Europe would lose jobs and that some would buy avoid buying produce purely to spite businesses based there. It's rather an immature approach to be boasting of.

No of course not ...

Re: Where a no deal Brexit would hit hardest

Of course it's just a wheeze, this ....

"the best way to deal with them is to buy more Toyotas and Nissans"

akin to Lance Corporal Jones saying ...

"those Fuzzie Wuzzies they don't like the cold steel up 'em"

Re: Where a no deal Brexit would hit hardest

Come on Annie, you're better than this! You are assuming that only remainers are sensible educated people, and the only ones who can count to more than ten without the aid of toes.....

I was joking when I said I was going out to slash the tyres of Mercs/BMW's and Audis....I like the average German and I would hate to see anyone lose their livelihood. However, if we had bought British like Margaret Thatcher suggested we wouldn't be in this mess today. We would still have had a farming industry that could feed the country without resorting to foreign imports, and probably a steel industry and countless other home grown industries also.

You mention rejoicing in the loss of foreign workers losing their jobs, what about our workers losing their jobs? Buy British and keep our lads and lassies in work.
'We couldn't supply our population with all the food it takes to keep 68 million residents happy and with a full belly' I hear you say.....So why do we keep letting people come here if we can't sustain so many people? Greed Annie! people want to pay peanuts for their products, so we buy them in from somewhere else increasing road traffic and pollution from the endless convoys of lorries that stretch from Edinburgh to London every day of the week on the M1....Mostly foreign trucks using cheap foreign diesel that prices our drivers off the road.

Have some pride in this country Annie, you haven't done badly out of it....and neither have most posters on this forum.

Re: Where a no deal Brexit would hit hardest

It will also be welcomed by the workers in Sunderland where they are built, each worker pays tax into the countries coffers, put them on the dole and not only won't they pay any tax, somebody else will have to support them and the peripheral businesses where the workers buy their stuff....

And there could have been even more jobs in Sunderland if our government wouldn't have given diesels a bad name.....Why would Nissan want to build diesels in a country that won't buy them anymore.....Bloody green shit madness!
