Re: The exit debate on tv
They have a very good loyal workforce there at Ellesmere Port Chris they have stuck by General Motors through thick and thin and this is the way that they reward them.If they go to Europe and Europe stops trading with us how will that benefit Vauxhall considering all the Vauxhall cars that get sold here.
It will be interesting to listen to the Roger Philips show tomorrow on radio Merseyside (noon till 2pm) Joe Anderson will come in for some stick from the public.

Rolls Royce have also stated that if we vote Brexit, they will review a planned investment in a new engine test bed facility at their Derby Plant.
Remain claim that leaving will cause the pound to fall, if does our exports will cheaper than those of our competitors. So whats the problem?

Sticks and stones J,P. The E.U. Will collapse within 2 years with or without G.B. We are the 5th wealthiest nation in the world, And yes we can and will do as we have before become a success story, I await with anticipation which country will call the same referendum if the brexit vote wins. Terry.

John what we have here is a pair of clowns who wouldn't raise a laugh in a cage of monkeys.If shorten gets in the country will be over run by Mussies!
there is no one in politics in this country who is there for the good of the nation The trough is not big enough for them they want more benefits for themselves and to hell with the people!No matter who we vote for were on a loser.My opinion.

And there in lies part of the EU problem if you leave. A weaker pound makes exports cheaper so some of the EU countries would then have to compete with Uk for sales.

Re: The exit debate on tv
See wee Burney has ordered her officials to dust down proposals for a Scottish Independence Referendum in the event that UK votes to leave and Scotland votes to stay.
Based on the gross payments the UK pays, I estimate that Scotland would have to pay into the EU funds a gross payment of £1.9b, can she afford that amount.
