I wonder out off the 3500 workforce how many will go for HGV as a retraining package…I remember Michelin tyres doing it for their workers when the uk plants shut.

With car transporter drivers, and Honda component supply drivers, sat at home twiddling their thumbs, do you reckon that’d be much of a plan?

To add. The three and a half thousand Honda jobs ain’t the half of it.

But obviously nothing like the knock on job losses when foundry to finished product GM and Ford UK operations were transferred to Germany shortly after we joined your Federal pile.No complaints then heard from your lot.

So now the EU goes one better by signing up to a free trade agreement with the Japs.In which case you’re right just think of all the job losses in Europe when as a result the Japs start dumping even more of their production in Europe to the obvious detriment of PSA sales for example.

While according to your script EU membership is supposed to protect European workers from the Japanese work ethic and deliver a French style workers’ paradise for everyone.That worked out well. :unamused:
