Nissan deliver vote of confidence in Sunderland

Good news, a welcome boost for Mackem's, hopefully the plant continues to operate and thrive again.

Nissan backs Sunderland plant as it announces huge losses and Spanish plant closure. Article HERE

I was just reading about the Spanish protests at the closures, sad for them but excellent news for Sunderland

Whereas many in Sunderland, including Nissan workers, voted B, irrespective of repeated scare claims that a B vote would see Nissan leave the UK. We know some working at Nissan, they held firm, believing the plant would survive. Hopefully it survives C-19 too

Understandable workers/locals are extremely disappointed/unhappy re closure, but releasing chemicals/thick black smoke into the air by way of a [Nissan tyres?] burning protest is wrong.

Amongst all the bad news with jobs I’m really pleased for the people of Sunderland with this news.

Great for the UK economy.

For anyone going to Spain for a holiday don't say you work for Nissan!

I heard something about that in the event of no deal Brexit but then could not find out any information.
