Nissan in Sunderland

Debate between Baroness Ludford and Lord Henley

Tuesday 5th February 2019 Lords Chamber

[Lord Henley]

The origin rules problem is very detailed and complicated in terms of the percentage of any car that is manufactured on any particular site. If the noble Lord would like me to do so, I shall write to him in greater detail on that subject.

[Baroness Ludford (LD)]

My Lords, can the Minister inform us how many Brexiteer parliamentarians have been CEOs of major manufacturing companies, such that they purport to know better than the CEOs of, say, Honda or Airbus what the problems of Brexit are?

[Lord Henley]

I am not sure that that question really deserves a response.
