Latest on the doings of the people who told us 'We hold all the cards'...

Michael McCormack (acting Australian PM) - The big winners, in the UK-Australian trade deal, are Australian producers, Australian farmers, indeed Australia full stop... I'm not worried about the Welsh, Scottish & NI beef producers... I want what's best for Australian producers.

I see the ongoing saga with the DUP is showing the benefits of taking johnson at his word.

[wilts rover]

At last some good news. I see the govs policy of Global Britian is working as exports to non-EU countries now make up over 50% of all our trade (even tho they fell 4% from pre-covid levels).

Because those to EU countries fell 55% and we have lost £2 billion in sales.

This is good news isn't it?

This isn’t good. Surprised nobody has picked up on it yet.

I know most of you won't be happy to hear that Nissan is to create 2,000
News jobs in the North East at a new battery plant for its Electric cars

[Glyn_Wigley]

I was happy to hear it when it was announced ages ago.

Brexit makes England win football matches. This bell end is going to be well pissed off when he finds out the England team is full of Marxists.

Footballers on £100,000 a week at least, Marxists?

You've got me there, BST. Is there something I'm missing here?

That's precisely the point, Steve.

Yeah, I get it now. I'm a bit slow on the uptake today.

I think I've razzled my brain trying to decipher CLH's posts.

Not at all SS, I have quite a few friends that are ex-members of the now defunct CP of Australia that would be considered to be wealthy and others that are lawyers working as organisers and mediators in the fireman's union well above the average wage. All still fans of the concept of communism. Just because they are smart people and have done 'well' should not preclude them from their leanings. Tell me why footballers earning $100,000 should be barred from being a member of any organisation, it's what you say and do that makes the difference I would have thought.

You lost me at ‘I have quite a few friends’

Good news.....?

[SydneyRover]

of course it's good news MM

[Not Now Kato]

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-57666008

Excellent news.
 
Be interesting to find out how much the UK tax payer is funding it though.  I can't believe this is happening without a very large government subsidy.
 
Whatever it is it's certainly good news for the people in that area.

[SydneyRover]

I think this is because it was left out of the original withdrawal agreement

[Glyn_Wigley]

I'd be interested to know when they gave up and why they didn't tell anyone that they had.

[selby]

 Well those on here that predicted the demise on here of the British motor manufacturing industry seem to have been wide of the mark.
 Vauxhall look to be about to announce a new production line of building electric vans at their Ellesmere Port facility with a predicted over a thousand jobs created.
 
 

[SydneyRover]

Maybe the best way to look at the effects of brexit will be to wait until parity is reached where the economy would have been without brexit and then all the benefits above the point where the economy would have been anyway is a bonus, tada

Not sure where you get that from, the reports I’ve read are saying they are safeguarding 1000 jobs. In other words those 1000 jobs are already there, there are no NEW jobs

Not forgetting the bribe paid for by taxpayer's money just to do that.

The same company have accepted a bribe as you call it of £1.1 billion from the French and German governments to build a battery production factory in their country's Glyn despite stopping the British government subsidising British Steel companies, something about being illegal at the time if I remember rightly.
 What a club to be in buddy, the poor old southern states are begging for us Brits to visit while the big boys up North  skim off them with interest rates.

Couldn't the government have lowered business rates for british steel to help them out at all selby?

[Hounslowrover]

Selby, wasn’t it the UK that voted against the EU bringing in tougher sanctions for cheaper Chinese steel when we were members, Sajid Javid said it would not be right for the EE to scrap the “lesser duty” regulations.

Since when has creating new factories and jobs been the same as subsidising and propping up existing factories and jobs?

I bet this gets ignored as per usual.

I think you’re right. It was around the time Cameron was trying to get the Chinese to fund a new Nuclear Power Plant in the UK if I recall.
