[QUOTE="johnb2713, post: 554420, member: 35153"] The sad truth is we actually make very little in the UK these days, the EU is substantially to blame for this funding manufacturing businesses to move out of the UK and setup elsewhere. Maggie had her cronies privatised most nationalised industries (telecoms, water, energy etc) with them ending up in the hands of foreign investors, the coal industry was shutdown almost overnight. All of this reduced our manufacturing capability to nigh on zero. I have recently bought a new car, I tried to go British with Ford or Vauxhall (JLR were completely off list due to price, reliability and dreadful customer service). We ended up buying a Chinese car, MG5. How can the Chinese manufacture a very well spec'd car, ship it round the world at a good £10 to £15k less than so call UK rivals? The government should go some way to support the UK manufacturers eg no VAT on UK manufactured goods, that would go some way to levelling the playing field and reducing imports. [/QUOTE]
