Current Affairs EU In or Out

[Methuselah]

Nah, not every bit of bad news is down to Brexit.

Doesnt make it any less of a really stupid idea mind.

That's just a matter of opinion and the majority thought it wasn't a stupid idea.

Its the one thing I will agree with you on this. It is lazy and plain wrong to put every mishap that a company has at the Brexit door.

In the same way it is lazy and plain wrong to dismiss stuff that can be.

A load of companies are stopping investment into the UK due to brexit, while we are in limbo and the longer it goes on will affect us in the medium term.

Also, government spending on infrastructure is minimal currently.

Gov spending on infrastructure has been bare minimum since 2010 when the tories got in...nothing to do with brexit...it's what they do...destroy communities and countries...turn brother against brother...if you don't believe this just look at thatcher...destroying the countries industries.

Nothing to do with brexit...ALL to do with tories in no. 10

The UK has had record inward investment over the last three years. Not sure where you got your information from?

I work in construction, all the bodies are predicting a big reduction this year and its looking truthful.

I personally deal with the likes of Amazon who have shelved projects until we have an outcome.

Oversea investment in London is drying up

Everything you think you know about Leavers and Remainers is wrong

A new study reveals that Remainers care much more about remaining than Leavers do about leaving — and it could have grave consequences for Labour and the Tories.

JLR have made mistakes all over the shop regarding diesel and product range and are suffering from a downturn in the Chinese market. The Japanese now have a trade deal with the EU and no longer require EU based manufacturing plants. There is a lot going on in the world and to simply say ‘it woz Brexit’ doesn’t cut it really....

Germany are also losing huge amounts of car manufacturing to cheaper EU states. just for a bit of context.

Fact of the matter new UK car registrations are falling, you can put down as much whimsical intellectual contextual nonsense all you like, there are less people obtaining new cars right here in the United Kingdom, not Mexico not Seychelles or whatever other irrelevance you wish to counter.

Oh, look. Having dismissed technological solutions as UK government and some on here have been proposing for the last three years, all of a sudden and faced with a potential PM who has to deliver Brexit in October, the EU are having a rethink....

“Brussels is preparing to deploy technology to keep trade flowing between Ireland and the EU via Britain under a No Deal Brexit.
EU officials will use 'IT systems' so goods can continue across the sea from Ireland through the UK and on into France, according to a leaked document.
The paper, which will be presented to EU leaders next week, ramps up No Deal warnings amid EU fears that a Brexiteer will win the keys to No 10.
It says the fix to keep open the so-called 'land bridge' between the Republic and Northern Ireland can be 'implemented swiftly in the event of No Deal'.”

A pity they didn’t offer this solution to May to help her get the first deal through...its amazing what can be achieved when one side actually believes you will just walk away.....

You'll have to forgive me for wanting a bit more than a quote from the Daily Mail Pete. I have asked you repeatedly to explain what these technologies are, where they've been deployed, what testing the UK government has done of them, what were the results of those tests, and what are their plans for subsequently scaling the rollout up?

In your own time.
