I was about to order a new Toyota C-HR

[life on mars]

A nationalised car industry to compete on the world stage in place of existing UK-based car manafacturers sounds pie in the sky to me, I'm afraid.

I'm not suggesting full nationalization as we know what that brings , however there is nothing stopping us funding the scientific developments , the build of Eco products and plant investments .

The PSA Group which owns Peugeot, Citroën, DS, Opel and Vauxhall with 13% being French government owned .

Part of me thinks though the whole industry is up in the air, Brexit or no Brexit
