In 2017 they had a positive return on investment of 13.7% . Worldwide they own 1.4 % of all equities I don't see them going bankrupt. I am not saying we are top of the league neither is the respected economist Liam Halligan. What part of "set to boom" suggests we are top shelf. Boeings new factory is a start. Did you think they were going to employ 1000 immediately? As for loosing airbus jobs...…..part of the conjecture of fear. This is what Boeing say "In the UK, we employ people across more than 60 sites, including Scotland, Wales and Ireland, and we’re growing. Our long relationship with the UK aerospace industry, armed forces and commercial aviation sector dates back more than 80 years. Today, the UK remains a critically important market and supplier base, as well as a source of some of the world's most innovative technology partners." As to why risk Brexit I have said it before Brexit isn't all about Japanese cars....….see my first quote Boeing wont replace 150000 car jobs 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is your evidence? The face of global trading continues to evolve driven by many factors. Newly industrialised countries like India and China have dramatically increased their share of world trade and their share of manufacturing exports. China, has emerged as an economic super-power. China's share of world trade has increased in all areas, and not just in clothing and low-tech goods. In 1995, the US had nearly 25% of global trade in hi-tech goods, while China had only 3%. By 2005, the US share had fallen to 15%, while China's share had risen to 15%. Industrially the UK and the world will continue to evolve to its own benefit, positive or negative, in spite of Leave or Stay.

The distance is almost 300 miles, and that is using the M1. People that organises walks, usually just do that, organise. I think that the Parachute Regt would struggle with 300 miles, never mind Nigel Farage, the only person I know that would find it a doddle would be Alf Tupper, and only if he could stop at Watford Gap for fish and chips.

The Italian economy is going backward and Germany and France are on the verge of recession. The Norwegian Sovereign Investment Fund ($1 trillion) has announced it will increase its UK holdings. They confirmed their commitment to the UK, deal or no deal. Foreign direct investment into the UK last year beat the USA, only China got more. British start up businesses got £8 billion in venture capital, more than France and Germany combined. Boeing has opened its only manufacturing plant in Europe....in Sheffield. Of the top 40 Universities in the world Britain has 7...…. as opposed to the EU which does not have one EU based institution that isn't in the UK. Forbes magazine has just called the UK " the best place in the world to do business" for the second consecutive year. Waiter!
