The snake oil merchants who sold Brexit to the public have to face serious questions. Thousands of jobs are at risk, meaning families will suffer. Nissan is just the latest manufacturer to warn against this car crash. https://t.co/Scsmd6w7j9

A few months ago on the @NE4EU stall outside the Bridges in Sunderland, I had a conversation with a a very polite, nice Leave voter who said "Yeah, but Nissan will never leave here. They've too much invested. We make them too much money." https://t.co/9ntKwNfz8g
