UK car industry 'needs to be saved', says Labour leader Sir Keir Starmer

There was considerable interest in meeting the Labour team, especially among long-term investors in energy, and finance. Sir Keir and Ms Reeves were pitching their "Green Prosperity Plan" alongside massive US efforts to subsidise low-carbon manufacturing and energy.

He denied that the Labour team was talking down Britain, saying "we are flying the flag, we are ambassadors for UK PLC and very pleased to do so with a very strong message".Labour has been cautious about talking about Brexit, but he said former prime minister Boris Johnson's deal was "not a good deal". You could "see the impact it is having", he added.

We make more cars in one plant in Sunderland than the whole of Italy

Don't worry when Brexit gets done we will be OK. Right? RishiSunak

Well you can crack on with when your PM then can't you, but I think you'll have enough on your plate sorting out all the shit the conservative have left behind.

Do you mean India car industry ?

Is he going to reinvent British Leyland? Maybe Red Robbo’s grandson knows how to wield a placard.

The imaginary car industry? The battery seems useless; run on handouts. I doubt electric will get off the ground. Energy needs to be a lot cheaper; I suspect as we pay to scrap cars to environmentally remove oils etc. batteries will cost a fortune. Don't think I would buy one.

Might help if they cut the car prices, instead of funding lenders and private equity with rip-off PCP's at vastly inflated 'retail' prices.

What car industry?

Should we not just let the market decide

What, saved from Keir_Starmer and his hard Tory Brexit?

Maybe we should sell charity jams?

We haven't got one.. Labour killed it off in the 70's

Mmmp as relevant as fishing and is only here because of barrier free access into the EU’s supply chain .

What car industry? Next thing Keir_Starmer and UKLabour will be wanting to 'save the British high street'.

3,000 to go. Make your voice heard. However you voted in the EU referendum we deserve honesty don't we? The government and the right-wing press are not giving us that.

Single market it is then

Starmer stating the bleeding obvious again!
