//In September, Mr Ghosn warned that he could scrap new investment without a guarantee of compensation for costs related to any new tariffs resulting from Brexit.

However, earlier this month, following talks with the Prime Minister, Mr Ghosn said the commitment by the Government that Sunderland would remain competitive, gave Nissan the confidence to go ahead.//

So what secret deal have the government done with Nissan?

It doesn't matter. Other EU nations - particularly France - provide all sorts of subsidies to support their industries. At present the UK has to obtain special dispensation to do so under EU rules. Post Brexit we won't have to so what can be wrong with that?

The Belgians were rolling out the red carpet for post Brexciting Britain earlier.
