Ford announce 11,000 job losses , and Jaguar LR another 4,500
Ford cutting jobs across Europe but probably fewer in UK and Jaguar hit hard by China downturn. All this is without any Brexit effect; that's still to come.
Both Ford and Jaguar have cautioned against a no-deal, which would give rise to tariffs on imports.
Did not Theresa May and Vince Cable say they would not fight another general election?When Parliament is dissolved, ahead of a General Election, there are no MPs to sit, stand or run. So if it's more than a rumour, you're correct.
And shutting other facilities at the same time.I think the collapse in the diesel market hasn't helped. Nice to see Ford investing in a new centre in Essex.
All it needs is for one of the Japan car makers to consider leaving the UK and we're fucked; so, we need to need to care about what he says.Who cares what the Japanese PM says ?
We are leaving in 78 days time ??
All it needs is for one of the Japan car makers to consider leaving the UK and we're fucked; so, we need to need to care about what he says.
Now the Japanese Prime Minister is urging avoiding a no-deal scenario.
Maybe the EU should just put us out of our misery. After all, May's my deal or no deal is actually the EU's deal or no deal, and whatever problems the EU faces, worrying that others will be tempted to follow the trail blazed by us is not one of them.
How so? Their profits go back to Japan so the only effect is to put more workers on a job market that is currently so desperately in need that we just HAVE to have migrant workers.
Like Trashbat, I truly believe you have lost it. Why on earth would a powerful nation accede to the EU's demands. Bonkers!...and I am sure that Japan just rolled over to all the EU demands and intransigence in their desperation for their recent trade deal.
I expect the EU powerhouse gave them a like it or lump it ultimatum that they had to accept because no deal would have meant armageddon for Japan.
That's why it took years to negotiate. You voted Leave on a premise, which is flawed, and now you're talking about armageddon for Japan. Bonkers!I expect the EU powerhouse gave them a like it or lump it ultimatum that they had to accept because no deal would have meant armageddon for Japan.
