Not one single company has said they are shutting up shop and leaving the UK.

And quite what this has to do with Brexit I don’t know.

What's that got to do with Brexit then?

But WTF has this got to do with the impending crisis in Britain :shrug:

Not a huge amount ..... it's about as relevant as JLR closing down for a while mostly ( but I will agree not entirely ) brought on by the massive slump in diesel car sales ..... thanks to our German chums. It's just noticeable that remainers will post any bit of negative news they can find and blame it all on Brexit. HT and Thunderbolt being the main parties.

Excuse me interrupting but how are our German chums responsible for the massive slump in diesel car sales?

Because VW were rather dishonest with their engine testing on their diesel cars and got caught out. Sales in diesel cars have since plummeted world wide ...... come on .... even you as a blinkered remainer must have seen that in the news ?

I certainly did, but the underlying reason for falling sales is surely the uncertainty about what legislation is on its way to deal with fundamental diesel emissions issues?

That's why I for one will be abandoning my lifetime preference for diesel; a decision that has nothing to do with VAG being naughty. My next car will almost certainly be one of their products anyway.

I would have to disagree re diesels - a slump bought on mostly (but not entirely) by the inherent emissions problems being recognised by International Governments and them reacting to it. The German emission scandal didn't help, but certainly wasn't the main driver for the slump.

I think there is an underlying reason that the constant negative news is so prevalent. The ERG had the perfect opportunity to publish anything positive for Brexit last week and what happened. The simple fact is that there is no positive news :shrug:

There seems to be quite a few of the more regular ??? posters taking a break from this thread for the last few days. I'm sure they also have 'genuine stuff to do'. Except for pasta, obviously :wink:

I'm off in a minute so a question for [MENTION=5101]BigGully[/MENTION], [MENTION=21401]pastafarian[/MENTION] and [MENTION=1365]Westdene Seagull[/MENTION]

Which are you backing, chequers or no deal ?

Left the country at short notice so yes had stuff to do.
Thanks for your concern.

I think some warnings were issued about their abuse of other posters and Brexit looks set to be a disaster. Without those two things I doubt they have a lot left to say.

Nope, no warnings came my way either, it was just you who got kicked off.

Well, it’s certainly been a week; first [MENTION=240]larus[/MENTION], [MENTION=21401]pastafarian[/MENTION] and [MENTION=1365]Westdene Seagull[/MENTION] making absolute plums of themselves . Then [MENTION=5101]BigGully[/MENTION] came along today and topped them all :lolol:
!

:lolol: well that never happened. Im sure [MENTION=33253]JC Footy Genius[/MENTION] posted something earlier on Brexit Anxiety Disorder, you should have another read HT. Looks like you are showing early symptoms.

And STILL don't know whether you want chequers or no deal, I see :lolol:

So you aren't joining any of the class actions against them?

I see Barnier is again saying progress has been made with regards to the border in NI. Sky were reporting it as some form of compromise on his part to break the deadlock.

Already given you an answer to your daft question, continuing to ask the same stupid question when you have already had an answer must be the definition of something.
Why do you continue to omit the Article 50 withdrawal deal when you ask it?
Don’t think you really understand what it is you think you are asking.

BMW to close Oxford Mini factory for at least a month after 29th March, in the event of a no deal Brexit.


Still, I suppose that’s just ‘Project Fear’ eg.


Move over so I can bury my head in the sand as well.

Hardly a vote of confidence in May's plan. Meanwhile the civil war carries on today in her party...
