New Brexit trade rules covering electric vehicles could cost European manufacturers £3.75bn over the next three years, an industry body has said.

European, so france, germany and spain.

The rules are meant to ensure that EU-produced electric cars are largely made from locally sourced parts.

It is a serious problem for European manufacturers. The UK is by far their largest export market, with 1.2 million vehicles arriving at UK ports last year. Likewise more cars built in the UK are transported to the EU than any other region.

So its going to effect Europe more than us, germany esspecially.

Plagiarism, the lowest form of journalism...

It's not just our car industry. Maybe you missed this bit, Hymie:

'It is a serious problem for European manufacturers. The UK is by far their largest export market, with 1.2 million vehicles arriving at UK ports last year. Likewise more cars built in the UK are transported to the EU than any other region'

Sorry, some of those are from the article

They might be reading your posts but you don't seem to be reading theirs.

//It is a serious problem etc// blah blah blah.

Yeah, got that bit.

Anything else to add?

Here is Patrick Minford explaining what Brexit means for the UK car industry; the destruction of that industry.

The BBC may be reading your posts but you are clearly having trouble.

I addressed this topic at 17:39 last Saturday in this thread:

https://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/News/Question1850151-4.html

Meanwhile, at 22:26 yesterday in this thread:

https://www.theanswerbank.co.uk/News/Question1850204-5.html#answer-13660568

You again mentioned the claim that Brexit had cost every household £1,000. I had commented (and comprehensively rubbished) that fallacy (17:31 last Saturday in the first thread mentioned above).

Why do you keep repeating the same stuff when it’s already been largely dismissed as nonsense, without countering those dismissals? Are you on a retainer from AB?

Here is Patrick Minford explaining what Brexit means for the UK car industry; the destruction of that industry.

Prof. Minford must take much of the blame, then. From his Wiki page:

"In 2016, Minford was a notable member of the Economists for Brexit group which supported the referendum campaign for the UK to leave the European Union. He believes that Brexit could increase GDP by 6.8%, and could reduce prices for British consumers."

Keep up the good work!

 

judge I admire your patience but you are banging your head against a brick wall.

Here is the reality of the situation – even the Daily Express is complaining.

That fool Boris Johnson agreed the deal, despite what TTT thinks (lots of UK job losses due to Brexit coming soon).

Haha, you lost get over it.

 

And I think we should have a Brexit tax on sour grapes just to finish you off 🤣

Carl Gustav Jung said - what you are not the first? - that the answer lay in 'group consciousness'

a sort of cloudy thing that hovers about a crowd and they all think the same

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collective_unconscious

and that explains why I pointed this out before
