Wonder how long it'll be before they shut the Solihull one down?
Lift and shift.


What exactly has been lifted? JLR has only just opened a large engine
plant in the Midlands, and show no signs of moving. Yet.

Benefits of globalisation.


Oh. I forgot to add, all done with EUSSR money.
Asset stripping by the EUSSR.


Without knowing the details, I'd guess it was done with access to EU
*loans* to Slovakia, mainly for infrastructure and not to JLR, and
domestic sweeteners and tax breaks to JLR. Happy to stand corrected.
