Should be coming online mid-July as it has been all ratified, it was actually heavily over-subscribed. It is not just a question of getting the lolly, each country will have to budget for meeting the climate targets digital etc. set by the EU.

1.5% of European production, yes, excellent. You keep on avoiding the real impact of this on the UK, it becomes irrelevant in the European industry. Nothing 'in theory' at all, just 'in denial' as usual from you and your ant-EU dreamworld. so what , oh wise one , do you suggest we do about it? As far as I know, rejoinng the evil EU isnt an option!!

Hang on, just so I understand this. The government is investing gazillions of tax payers money to encourage Nissan to build in Sunderland. The COO of Nissan stated on the record this morning that Nissan would not have stayed but for this public handout. The taxpayers' money is so invested in order to: (1) bribe "Red Wall" voters; and (2) justify Brexit given Nissan was a rallying cry from Remainers. And the OP thinks this somehow supports the vote to Leave. Really?

People would rather spend their time bleating and whining about the fact that we left and how they were ‘right’ than consider how we make the best of it going forwards. Two things are are certain for me - 1. this current crop of weak, useless politicians (of all parties) are not the answer and 2. we need to move away from this petty, pathetic, ‘remain v leave’ cobblers and look to steer our way through. (From both sides).

It's funny that you still call it Project Fear... the farmers and fishermen probably wouldn't find it funny, mind. Suddenly remainers care about fishermen? They were doing far far better before we joined the EU. So the pro EU lobby were the people who screwed them and never cared a jot about it.

Whilst baiting Remain Retards will never lose a certain charm, I do think it is time we all perhaps decided to move on now. What amazes me is how little I see people demanding we Rejoin. A perfectly legitimate political ambition but instead, and I confess I am as guilty as anybody, we are still rehashing the old battles of 2016 which in political history, especially after the events of the last 18 or so months, are literally ancient history.
Let's leave them to wallow in their misery. It's only truly fun when you can have a modicum of respect for them and that ship truly sailed in December 2019.

I think you'll find that the "Remain Retards" are only commenting on an idiotic claim by the OP (presumably having read it in the Express) that Nissan's decision vindicates Leave, even though it is just a manifestation of government bung. Thus, the irony of calling Remainers "retarded" is not lost.

I can't convey how much this made me laugh, Matov. And apparently not expressed metaphorically, therefore I assume you know of such people!

Looks like remain/leave will dominate for years to come. This was though a state bribe the sort decried by the tories since Thatcher, now they are desperate over a brexit disaster. Without it Nissan would have walked and they played an easy brexit hand. State intervention is sometimes necessary, to save steel for example which the govt are trying to protecting today. Increasingly socialist measures are becoming prevalent, and the furlough itself, re-nationalisation of failed privatisations,, transport corporation tax are left-wing policies, and of course the NHS who should be getting the all the credit for vaccines etc. not brexit, is state-run. Had the UK stayed though, this would have not happened.

We are paying the price a state bailout of over 500 millions to keep Nissan in the UK. If we had stayed in, this would not have been necessary, and we would have access to the 750 billion EU recovery fund. Is there any caveats to using this fund as its surely not going to be a cheque with no conditions. See Greece for an example of the pain that can be had by being in the pocket of the EU.

It is amusing that people blame Brexit for the self serving actions of Germany and France. The only way to create prosperity in the future was to escape their stranglehold over policy. Yes , good to hear that after the city had the European door firmly shut in its face today, the chancellor told them to cosy up to china.
