Another Brexit Bonus

[jon1959]

Five years*ago, straight after Britain’s vote to leave the European Union (eu), Nissan, a Japanese carmaker, warned that the future of its factory in Sunderland was in doubt. On July 1st it announced a £1bn ($1.3bn) investment in a new battery plant that will secure the factory’s future. And on July 6th Stellantis, another motor manufacturer, said it would be investing £100m to produce electric vans in Ellesmere Port. Further news is expected soon from*bmw*and Toyota. The trade deal that Britain struck with the*eu*in December 2020—and eye-watering amounts of government cash—have bosses musing less about upping sticks, and more about the advantages of post-Brexit regulatory freedom.

Where did you lift that unattributed quote from?

Just wondering who (not you) is assessing the levels of 'government cash' available to companies willing to flip their position on Brexit as 'eye watering'.
