Sunderland gets what it voted for...

[Notch7]

Have the Brexers agreed yet what sort of Brexit they want? Have they agreed it with EU27? If not, then the Brexers are responsible for the shambolic uncertainty.

Some of the maddest ones still favour no-deal.

The people of Sunderland were not offered a choice of what sort of Brexit they could get, so you can't ever pretend they will be getting what they voted for.

Simply should have gone to the EU and said this is what we are prepared to do/want and let the remaining 27 sort it out and not budged.

What you describe is not a negotiation.

The Brexers have been unable to agree what they want.

See below (in red).

Stand down all you remoaners, an announcement that normal service is about to be resumed is imminent. I bet you’ll all be happy now, won’t you?

The gigafactory is really good news, but there's talk of another announcement at the end of the week regarding a new model/s. The gigafactory would be 20k jobs with a potential for additional 40k jobs for suppliers. To qualify for our tariff/quota free eu deal that will limit the amount of parts that can come from China or elsewhere, components will need to be mainly UK/EU manufactured. Good news for UK.

Good news for UK.

But unfortunately not welcome on here by some.

It is good news, good for the North as well as UK.

 

[JohnD]

Mottie doesn't care, except for things that affect him personally.

Not by me, Sunderland is totally reliant on Nissan and had it wound down operations that would've been disastrous for the area.

It ain't bad news for the EU either really, it locks in manufacturing to UK/EU.
Shame about the sausages though.

What’s that you say John? "Yes, that is good news, I’m happy"?

It's good news but they're aiming for 1.9GWh which is only medium sized in the modern world, not on the scale of the Tesla Giga factories, which the Nevada one is producing 35GWh right now and are aiming for 250GWh in Berlin. Or Northvolt which is aiming for 60GWh.

Heck a pilot Tesla battery facility using some new techniques is aiming for 10GWh.

Should read 2k and 4k jobs respectively.

I expect voters in Sunderland will thinking Ellal hasn't a scooby as usual

No, he hasn't. Because global car sales are down.
But hopefully in a year or two....
