I'm not sure that non-UK itinerate EU fruit pickers assemble cars! Leaving the EU will not stop EU fruit pickers coming to work - just that they will probably need a work permit, have proof that the job exists, have no automatic rights to (unemployment or in-work) benefits nor a right to long term residency. In the case of fruit pickers .We will probably just go back to the system similar to that which worked prior to the EU concept of freedom of movement. > > I really can't see how you can have tight control over boarders while > still making it easy for a foreign national to enter the country quickly - > as would be needed in this case. > The same way as UK companies can send someone to the USA or Australia for similar.

Many companies, both in the UK and other EU countries who sell us goods that the majority of us can afford currently have outsourced their manufacturing to the far east or countries outside of the EU. They are not operating within the the single market for manufacturing but find easy to bring the goods into the EU through all the red tape, bureaucracy and tariffs the doom and gloom merchants would have us believe would stop all future trade with the EU - or even the rest of the world if no free trade deals exist. If you are that worried about protecting British car working jobs buy a car assembled in the UK rather than a foreign built car. If all those advocating remaining in the EU did so then the production at UK car plants wouldn't need exports of cars in order to survive and imports of completed cars would reduce - a win, win situation. -- mailto : news {at} admac {dot} myzen {dot} co {dot} uk |

Of course we will be able to buy things from anywhere and with some food cheaper than the EU. What you haven't answered is just how we pay for these imports. Which is the $64k question. At the moment the majority of the UK's income is from financial etc services. Not selling Jaguars or whatever. Many such financial operations base themselves here because of access to the EU. And are high wage operations. With many nationalities working in them.

Is it sensible to rely on a sector that next year could be run from an office building in India with an additional staffing level of perhaps less than 100 people in each country they are servicing? Currently more and more of us don't set foot in a UK bank branch or haven't had need to contact an actual person for years for an Internet bank account or investment.

A proper one with "Dog Eared" JAP engine is around £35K. Even better but much rarer are ones with Matchless V twins, pay a £10K premium for air cooled and an extra £5K tax on top of that for water cooled. There is one truly "awesome" one with 2 Scott 2 stoke twins chained together up front. Dunno if it was Green un or Blue un but the "Book of the Scott" said tester said "overtake at 70 and then change up!", that was when a fast car did 70mph and supercars (100SS) claimed to be able to scrape up the ton. Doesn't help current British manufacturing but the classic car and bike industry is turning over £1m's and supporting 1000's of jobs each year. A friend has an alloy bodied 4+4, it's about 30 years old now. The factory didn't want to supply alloy body as they said flexing of the body makes the paint flake off the alloy. He had them prime it with a rubber paint. But I suspect the thickness of paint has negated the weight saving of the alloy panels. |

And the alternative is? My point exactly. All we get from you Brexiteers is some form of hope for the future. With zero plans on how to implement things. To me, it is like flouncing out of a reasonably well paid job you've been happy enough in for a long time without having a new one to go to. In some form of mid life crisis. Not the actions of a logical person. -- *Can fat people go skinny-dipping? Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |

Do you want me to refresh your memory with Peter's simple problem put to you, that you weren't able to answer and squirmed your way forward with excuses of your own inadequacies? > But then most will lose with Brexit. I'm doing very well, thanks. The only pay increase I've had for 10 years and more work than I can handle. You don't work, do you? And you own your own house near London that is likely to depreciate if the housing demand reduces (or at least not accrue so much in value in the coming years). |

Thought it wouldn't be long before you tried to bring this up again. You tried every trick in the book in an attempt to prove my original statement about BHP versus torque in a road going car was incorrect and failed dismally. Despite introducing every single red herring you could find. And got all upset when I refused to answer all the silly questions you kept coming up with. So basically, a poor looser. -- *He who dies with the most toys is, nonetheless, dead. Dave Plowman London SW To e-mail, change noise into sound. |

There was no trick, just a simple multiple choice problem put to you by Peter Hill. > And got all upset when I refused to answer all the silly questions you > kept coming up with. No refusal, you simply didn't have a clue. It was one problem, there were no "silly questions". |
