I'd say that the government promised to cover any tariffs they might incur.
Which was on the cards anyway. |
|
By:
the falling pound has more than covered any tariffs, twice over
|
|
By:
They probably promised to devalue the £ even further and not to worry..

Whatever 'deal' was done, thankfully it will help the people of this country immeasurably more than the scandalous misuse of taxpayers money that saw VIP access to this country given to adult male illegal immigrants posing as child refugees.

Can't see the Germans and French wanting tariffs imposing on car imports. Two-way street.

Is it beyond the realms that every major corporation will now put out a slightly threatening tone in their next reports saying they may have to y'know consider leaving. Unless, maybe, y'know "assuranc£s" can be giv£n to th£m.

Not bent. Just the tories doing what the tories do. Shovel money to their mates in big business. As someone said yesterday, brexit means paying for something that was previously free. That £350M isn't going to last long at this rate.

Is libtard a portmanteau word of liberal and retard by the way?
|
|
By:
Fully correct that a government who is control of its own country can adjust corporation tax, vat tax or any other taxes to make a country work.
|
|
By:
I would imagine every major car manufacture in the EU is also having secret secret meetings with their respective governments.
Those German car manufacturers are particularly nervous. |

You inadvertently confirm what leave voters voted for there Breeding mad. |
|
By:
Of course it can and that's what they'll do. Corporation tax will be cut so company's bottom lines, bonuses and dividends won't be affected. Yay!
If only that bus had said "We send the EU £350 million a week. Let's fund Nissan and other multi-national companies instead." |

he's getting a dossier ready, he is more toxic than Izzard, Geldof and Brand combined. Happy days indeed.

With HMRC sweetheart deals for big corporations and the frankly bonkers Hinckley Point deal, its a decent guess to say that the government have given away a lot here for some much needed good news.

Corporation tax has already been slashed under the Tories due to go down to just 17% in 2020.

Last night Apple quietly raised the UK prices of its computers to reflect the fall in the pound. So a 4K iMac that was £1,199 is now £1,449

Gentlemen and Pineapple
Would any of you care to confirm what the tariffs will be after negotiations? Those German car manufacturers are currently chewing their finger nails to the bone. |
|
By:
It is not for the sovereign governments of Britain and Japan to reveal the nature of this agreement to any foreign powers in Europe.
|
|
By:
After brexit we were told can manufacturing was over in the uk, now it is different they claim to know what deal was struck with nissan, you could not make it up or some do.
|
|
By:
No-one knows what the tariffs will be. Doesn't stop big business from painting worst scenario case and squeezing governments for dosh. So money that could be spent on any number of things will instead go to multi-national corporations and prices will still possibly rise for the consumer. Good job.
|
|
By:
It's more mind games to go with to the EU negotiating table with isn't it?
'Whatever you throw at us, be sure to know that our car manufacturers are covered. How about your Audi, Merc and BMW boys, are they covered' I like it, i like it a lot. |

British jobs for British workers, very well done pm May

Exactly. So please calm down on the hysterics. Relax. |
|
By:
If there are tariffs that strengthens the most inventive and creative country, that is England. Who would deny that?
|
|
By:
Hysterics
The point is it doesn't matter. Businesses will want their slice of the £350M and this govt will give them it. |

you get the feeling some on hear would have loved this factory to have closed or moved elsewhere.
