Stuart4WolvesSW Is this still project fear? Yesterday you effectively voted for no deal.

And this is just a visible high profile industry. The economy will be destroyed and the government will blame Covid rather than the hardest of Brexits.

Haven't heard any pro-Brexit spanners spouting 'Project Fear' recently... Seems to have died a death about the time 'Canada++' disappeared & calling 'No deal' the 'Australian Deal' to make it sound less shit.

robertcourts sunlit uplands ?

Whatever.

The irony here is that the future of Vauxhall and Nissan car plants in the U.K. is in the hands of the French state via its stake in Renault. So if there is a no deal, expect a mass exodus to France.

I don't suppose Covid had anything to do with it! No!

Brexit lol. Let morons vote, suffer the consequences. Look at USA
