Honda plan to close UK plant is not due to Brexit - lawmaker

Free trade agreement between the EU and Japan started on Feb 1st. Honda doesn't need european production any more.

rickmedford here you go

It is a reflection of the EU's no tariff deal with Japan to ensure our car industry is scuppered. You might almost think it was planned.

NONONOEU Note that they’re not re locating to an Eu country .

But Honda employees know better

Of course not....

BREXIT is a global market phenomena you smeghead!

Let me guess... He's a Tory isn't he.

Let Honda leave the uk, time the UK did like other countries and just buy British we keep hearing that we are the best, so lets prove it, ✌🏻EU

Delighted that more brexiteers will lose their jobs

When will a UK government wake up to the fact that overheads in the UK suffocate businesses, and entrepreneurship? Commercial rents are too expensive, and business rates should be abolished. Tax on business premises is anti-business/anti-jobs. theresa_may Honda Swindon

Brexit ...The gift that keeps on giving.

When Honda announce the closure of its operations in Turkey as well, I hope are quick to point out that the two decisions are probably due to the EU Japan Economic Partnership Agreement coming into force this month. Otherwise,

what other Honda plants are closing?

Delusional.

90% of output goes to EU and USA Market so everyone repeat .. “nothing to do with Brexit” ABSOLUTELY NOTHING with : 🎶 🌈 Brexit🦄

JustinTomlinson I expect the 3500 poor souls & families don't care for your instantaneous brexit denial crap. Whether it's Brexit or EU/JPN is irrelevant. The problem for Swindon is replacing these jobs in a post Brexit employment landscape that will not attract alternative FDI

ConHome BBCWorld LeaveEUOfficial He would say that, wouldn't he.

Its because of the EU/JP Free Trade Agreement and nothing to do with BREXIT

And an FTA with the EU. And a plant at Yorii that makes Swindons production line look like British Leyland in the seventies

I'm guessing Mr Tomlinson is a Tory MP..... I would like to point out that Honda themselves said it's because of brexit you lying....

I guess that Justin Tomlinson doesn't understand the nature of just in time supply chains, customs and tariffs.

Justintime method of bull.
