Tesla announcement demolishes Johnson's Brexit fantasy


Responding to the announcement that Tesla will be investing in a new factory in Germany and not the UK due to Brexit uncertainty, Liberal Democrat Shadow Brexit Secretary Tom Brake:

"On Boris Johnson's first day in Downing Street, Dominic Cummings was pictured wearing a T- shirt picturing a company founded by Elon Musk. Now the very entrepreneur Cummings idolises has chosen not to invest in the UK because of the extreme Brexit being pursued by this government.

"Meanwhile, Boris Johnson is giving a speech at an electric car factory the very same day that we find out this industry is being damaged by his Brexit plans.

"You really couldn't make it up. This completely demolishes the Johnson and Cummings Brexit fantasy and shows their deluded plans are already costing the country vital investment and making us all poorer.

"The best way to stop this Brexit nightmare, kick Johnson and Cummings out of Number 10 and build a brighter future is to vote Liberal Democrat on December 12."

Electric cars built in Germany then EXPORTED to the UK ,not British made, no British jobs..enriching one of our 'friends' (as Johnson puts it).Not being attractive to others coming here means we have to offer good deals.THAT COULD MEAN LOWER WAGES,LESS BENEFITS LESS WORKERS PERKS WE BECOME A SWEAT SHOP.

STAYING IN THE EU IS OUR BEST DEAL.
