    Can I just post this again;
    Harley Davidson looking for a European manufactuering base.

    But of course like a great many companies one country they will not be considering right now is the UK.

Thank foc for that  :lol

I'm with you there Hedgetrimmer over priced crap

I agree.  I have no interest in Harley Davidsons.  But I would quite happily see them manufactured here for the UK and Euro market. 



You are talking quality well paid jobs.


But the reality is Harley Davidson will not consider the UK as a manufacturing base for even a nono second. 



Nissan has cancelled the UK production of the X-Trail in the UK.  Honda is moving out lock, stop and barrel.  Schaeffler are moving out.  Michelin are moving out.  There is now a growing list of companies moving part or all of their production out of the UK.


The priority for these manufactures is to access the EU single market.  Even your darling economist Professor Minford, in his frankly flawed positive analysis of a NO DEAL BREXIT, admits that UK manufacturing will be all but wiped out.


I am, and continue to be, at a complete and total loss as to why any ordinary person in the UK would wish the UK to leave the EU and the single market.


We will become poorer outside the EU.
