    You're quite right in saying previously, and the Brits were the first to realise it. The future consists of the untangling of regional protectionist blocs.

    As if the rest of the world didn't comprise trade cartels protecting hegemonic interests, you gormless buffoon.

    The EU is the least protectionist bloc on the planet, an economic body which is founded on a rule of law the envy of the world, and to which access is granted to the entire third world provided the trade does not comprise "bullets & guns". The rest of the world queues up to do business with it and in the past decade it has entered into free trade agreements with many key states including Korea, Japan and, currently, Australia, and it has granted access to the Mercosur states including Argentina, to mention a few.

    The sheer magnitude of your ignorance and stupidity is beyond the infinite.

    Fuck off.

    In the meantime, I note the axis of trade has shifted away from the City of London by just that little bit more to Amsterdam. The inevitable post Brexit osmosis of commerce flowing out from Engerlandia to the EU is taking place in ever increasing waves and was of course forecasted by we Remainers unhampered by the stupidity that afflicts the Tory right wing/ Kipper loons. And as we speak the delays inflicted upon the British traders by the Brexit/ERG bureaucracy are extending further and will only get worse according to the Haulage/CBI/SME associations. And what has been the reaction of Bozo and his Clowns? Da Nada except the return of the anti EU rhetoric confected by Cummings and his snivelling legacy fed through the ERG publicity machine by the Mail/Telegraph/Spectator shills that little Blighty is fighting its corner against the evil EU empire trying to bully plucky Brits but Brexitania will prevail .....Jawohl!

    That's the problem with remainers, they can't see beyond Europe. The whole point of brexit was to get away from the orbital pull of Europe, so it's hardly surprising that some dust has been sucked towards Europe when reaching escape velocity.

    Your post is littered with traces of your political remorse. Totally irrelevant. Cummings left/was pushed out, last year.
    Do try to keep your fantasy about the EU relevant and up to date. If you don’t do that, even more people will laugh at your prosaic style and lack of realism.

    What the holy fuck is a kipper in this context? My you are so very old, just like your vague platitudes.

    You stupid fuck, Cummings' legacy of propagandising slogans remains at the heart of the Brexit doctrine, a callow cultism derived from the tainted bigotry that was UKIP's charter legislating a future return to the backward 1950s Britain washed white in the bleach of prejudice and parochial xenophobia.

    That's the relevance, you dull-brained dinosaur.

    Strange how the current government is moving toward more caring welfare policies now that Cumming influence is waning. His work is done now. Just let it go.
    I have asked you before not to use UKIP as a reference tool. It is dead and buried, irrelevant, just like you and the remain camp entourage. Bye bye mr bitter hatred.

    Europe lacks the expertise, foundations, regulation and trust that has been earned by the UK. Feeble attempts by EU commissars to change direction is just sour grapes over what they now realize that they stand to lose.

    Not caused by Brexit.

    The company – which is yet to provide a firm date for the closure – has blamed the consumer shift from laundry powders to liquid for its decision to shut down the Park Road factory.

    A bit of a false flag. Customers moving to liquid instead of powder detergent is blamed for the reduction in income. Reasoning behind moving production to France and Luxembourg not clear.

    A red herring. Jobs are always being created, lost, and relocated based on general, non-political market conditions.

    The company is facing headwinds and is having to rationalise its production which is ceasing in Brokendownbrexitbritain in preference to serving its more important markets in the EU.

    I should imagine it's only a matter of time when Ellesmere will cease PSA car production and Airbus will close Broughton/Filton and BMW will re-locate EV production from Cowley to Holland.

    Eventually, the piper will have to be paid and the tsunami of debt will wash over all as the worst government in living memory begins to accept the consequences of its profligacy.

    As I said before, stagflation, increasing unemployment, higher costs and more punitive taxes is the future.

    Brokendownbrexitbritain will become an ersatz US where the rich live in islands of wealth amid a sea of want, despair and hopelessness.

    Imagine Merthyr Tydfil, Middlesborough, Scunthorpe, Hull, Grimsby, Blackpool, Stoke, Burnley, Oldham et al and you get the picture of what is in store for the lower end as debt eats away at them.

    The ERG of course will do fine and dandy as their hedge fund, carpetbagging, tax evading elite rake it in as they exploit the poor and stupid.

    Keep on imagining, you fool.

    The UK is a huge car market, and any company that pulls out will lose a huge chunk of its sales in loss of goodwill.

    Once again, a post absent of fact, but full of hate and wishful thinking. Not only the Thai are subject to your recriminations, but any other human entity that does not meet your personal wishes.

    Stuck in a country you detest, and slagging off another country, based on nothing but your sad disillusionment with your life as stands today.

    It’s not Britain that is broken old boy, it’s your mindset, eating you away with unbridled envy for those who have what will always be denied to you.

    The rise of UKIP was the single reason why a Brexit referendum was held. To ignore that is like ignoring the gun, as irrelevant, once you've been shot in the foot.

    The UK will be back in the EU within the next decade, just wait and see.
