See you are on yet another political stir up?

[naomi24]

Creating jobs has to be good news ... in anyone's book. No?

[TrevorThePug]

Yes, we should celebrate this remarkable occasion of keeping what we already had.

[TheChair]

It gives it a competitive advantage over other UK car makers. Once again TTT demonstrates his lack of understanding of the issues

[naomi24]

There you go, TTT. It's come as a great disappointment that this country hasn't fallen flat on its face. :o)

[teacake44]

Thechair, You have to understand that TTT looks for anything that will create a political argument. It must be his hobby :0)

It wasn't TTT who "said" it. It was Ashwani Gupta Nissan's Chief operating officer who said the agreement will give it a "competitive advantage". Was he creating a political argument or trying to counter balance the EUSSR's(and the remoaners) negative reports?

[TrevorThePug]

The competitive advantage being the £60 odd million Nissan were handed as a post Brexit sweetner?

[Togo]

Peanuts in the long term. We have given billions to the EUSSR for the privilege of not making cars, growing our own food, or making our own gas cookers. Billions more to stay at home and do nothing but moan in the last 12 months. £60mill to encourage the development of car battery manufacturing in the UK looks like good business to me considering there are few sites in Europe capable of doing so and the coming demand for them.

[TrevorThePug]

My bad, it was £80m and the competitive advantage being that imported cars will be unaffordable so everyone in Britain will be driving Nissan Leaf's in the future. Yay, (Japanese) sovereignty.

Not a company known for resting on their Laurels, Nissan can see the Sunny uplands.
The Cherry on the cake as 'twere.

Hurray for Nissan! it was all worth it after all... :)

[TrevorThePug]

"considering there are few sites in Europe capable of doing so"

apart from the massive plants in France and Germany and the RR one in Scotland of course.
