Waste of time arguing with him, he believes what he believes.

I'm not so sure about Steel, though I do believe that we need to look at
where the holes in the market are on this one and do stuff better or cheaper
where we can. Besides, many countries do tend to dump things to weaken the
home producers, seems to be a common thing. The Americans seem to have used
trade tariffs to redress the balance. The other items you mention who
compete from a less well paid country with poorer helth and safety do
wrankle a lot with people but as you say has sod all to do with the EU.

Disastrous for UK economy if we leave the EUSSR???????????????

Britain lost its ship building industry while in the EU

Nothing whatever to do with the EU, everything
to do with South Korea getting its act into gear
on ship building and leaving you lot for dead.

There is still shipbuilding in the EU too.

Britain lost its aircraft industry while in the EU

More of your lies. Britain had enough of a clue to get
involved with Airbus and it leaves what aircraft industry
Britain had for dead. And that was possible due to the EU.

Britain lost its textile industry while in the EU

Nothing whatever to do with the EU, everything
to do with the textile industry moving to much
lower labour cost countrys like Bangladesh etc.

Britain lost its rail rolling stock industry while in the EU

Nothing whatever to do with the EU. France does
in fact do fine in that area and outside the EU too.

Britain lost its articulated truck industry while in the EU

Nothing whatever to do with the EU, everything to
do with Britain being completely ****ing hopeless
at artics. Plenty of others in the EU do fine in that area.

Britain lost most of its car industry while in the EU

Nothing whatever to do with the EU, everything to do with
Britain being completely ****ing hopeless at car manufacturing.
Plenty of others in the EU do fine in that area.

Britain lost its coal industry while in the EU

Nothing whatever to do with the EU, everything
to do with the fact that coal mining was never
going to be viable in Britain anymore and that
was true LONG before the EU showed up.

Britain lost its steel industry while in the EU

Nothing whatever to do with the EU, everything
to do with the fact that the steel industry was never
going to be viable in Britain once China got its act
into gear on that.

And none of that **** will return if Britain leaves the EU.

And these REMAIN pillocks are still saying...

"Don't leave! You will risk losing our industries!"

That is true of what remains of the car industry.
The rest of the world gave up on British cars
LONG ago now. Only the EU is a viable market
for what **** is still produced in Britain.
