Honda UK telling MPs it imports 2 million components a day from Europe on 350 trucks and holds 1 hours worth of stock. It would take 18 months to put customs admin in place but every 15 minutes of delay would cost £850,000 a hour. That's not including WTO tariffs of 10% and 4.5%.



Aye but,lets take back control.

Some tory dick is going to have to tell the country that brexit is impossible. I think its only right boris goes first.

I'm being very flippant with this comment but maybe a progressive UK government could strike a deal with Honda and their suppliers and give them incentives to manufacture those 2 millions parts here in the UK?? Think about the savings on transport costs alone, as well as the benefit to the environment and of course the jobs it would bring!!! Not at all convinced we have that government at the moment, but if Brexit is to be a reality at some point then the UK government will need to become very creative to entice companies to set up in the UK! Its doable if they would put their minds to it but I wouldn't hold my breath!!
