Bulletguy Posted August 29, 2021 Share Posted August 29, 2021 Many kept asking Brexiters for a list of Brexit benefits but never got anything from them other than abuse and lots of silly shouty shouty stuff. We now have an answer........from those on the front line, manufacturers. Brexit has brought no benefits There are no benefits as a result of Brexit, an organisation representing UK manufacturers has said. According to Make UK, it is currently hard for manufacturers to see any advantages from leaving the EU, and the organisation warns exports to the bloc could become a permanent problem if the government does not step in. The organisations admitted its position following a meeting it had with SNP MP Angus MacNeil. Mr MacNeil said that “essentially, after their [Make UK] talking to 1000s of member businesses, no one has reported any advantages to Brexit.” He later added large businesses are “still exporting, with hassles, to the EU, but a lot of small businesses have stopped”. He said 17 per cent of UK exporters are no longer trading as exporters due to Brexit and that there has been a 50 per cent fall in food and drink exports. A Make UK spokesperson told The London Economic that even before Britain had its “final departure” from the European Union, “political uncertainty was hitting exports to the bloc”. https://www.thelondoneconomic.com/news/brexit-benefits-uk-manufacturers-285873/ Quelle surprise.........we told you so but you wouldn't listen. :-| Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bulletguy Posted September 1, 2021 Author Share Posted September 1, 2021 pelmetman - 2021-09-01 9:19 AM I suggest the OP asks a UK lorry driver about Brexit benefits >:-) ......... How about you posting some factual evidence from credible sources of these Brexit "benefits" and explain how everyone is going to benefit. You've been asked numerous times over the years, particularly by Brian, yet never come up with anything. So lets have this list of Brexit "benefits".

CurtainRaiser Posted September 1, 2021 Share Posted September 1, 2021 Seeing that Pelmetman is too busy defending nonces then share with us what he has "won", I thought it was only fair that I bring to the forums attention a very real Brexit benefit. Weatherspoons has run out of beer and has had to close several pubs. https://www.lbc.co.uk/news/wetherspoons-beer-shortage-brexit/?fbclid=IwAR3luEb9aNQa-igLkax3GTpGF3j_3A4KngH3oIRyRZlbgg57Th4nRRofOtA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I note you have failed to comment on whether a tax cut for the industry was necessary to promote growth in the industry? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
