    No it's not
    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

              Nissan to 'pull out of Europe and concentrate on UK' in event of hard Brexit | PoliticsHome.com

              I guess what Nissan are really saying is they are happy with the current tariffs etc and could not really give a fook about politicians - unless they fook about with the tariffs.
              Remind me again who is leaving the CU?

              I don't understand why people expect the EU to rollover and accept whatever trade deal terms the UK wants. The EU warned you there is no way for a comprehensive trade deal without straight out re-adoption of CU/SM to happen in 1 year, yet i'm sure it will be blamed for not signing up to one by the end of the transition period.

              Any job losses in the EU from Nisan closing it's factories will be compensated by new jobs created by other car manufacturers. The demand for X amount of cars in the EU will still be there. If Nisan is unwilling to fulfil it, other manufacturers, most likely European will.

                Fake News

                Nissan denied having made such a plan, however, and said its Sunderland plant would be under threat along with its European operations if the UK fails to ensure tariff-free access to the EU market

                  Now that Brexit is done the economy will decide whether it's good not the tabloid newspapers. We will see next January whether Nissan will expand in the UK because deliveries are delayed, tariffs imposed and costs soar. I have my doubts.
