No I don't work for those projects, I'm just curious as to what is going to happen to them if they don't get the European funding they need....

Where did you think the EU got the money from in the first place?

If a project is good and worth while it will be backed. If not then it should be stopped asap.
We can now stop wasting our money on EU projects.
 
Not a hope in hell of them moving the wing manufacture abroad.

1 the guys int he factories on the continent are not trained nor qualified to work at anything like the pace required (the euro factories dont have self certification for work, the work has to be second party inspected, we used to do that here but higher production rates meant rhey had to move to first party stamping).

Secondly moving/making a new jig takes years.

If they started doing that we'd be on strike and rhe company out of businessbefore they could even get one up and running producing 1 wing a month versus the 11 a month we knock out on 320 alone.

What about parts for new planes? I assume jigs and bits like that would be manufactured specifically for each design. As you say it's unlikely any current designs will be relocated, but parts for new aircraft...?
 
regardless of the result 52-48% is not a great position to move forward with

Agreed, and that was always going to be the case regardless of the outcome. By taking this approach almost half of the populace were always going to be unhappy about the decision.
 
As I placed my ballot at 8.30pm yesterday I had a moment of self-doubt. Not that I was making a bad decision (Remain) but that I was making the decision at all. How on earth did it come to this - who thought it would be a good idea to put the choice in the hands of people like me who know rather little about it, and plenty more who know even less?!

I consoled myself that, at least, it was likely that Remain would win out.

But that didn't happen. The handful of racists on my facebook page, every older member of my family, who still refer to black people as ******* or golliwogs and indians as pakis, who look back with fondness on the '70s with the 3-day-week, the '80s with the decimation of the country's heavy industry, and view the rest of the world with an absurd level of paranoia... They got what they wanted. And they've ****ed it for the rest of us.

I'm upset and I'm angry.

I'm angry at the Tories. For punishing the poorest with their 'Austerity', pinning the blame of those cuts on immigration, and then arrogantly assuming people would forget all that when making the biggest political gamble imaginable by giving in to the nasty wing of the party and holding a referendum.

Because, aside from the racists and comfortable, bigoted, elderly that I know, there were plenty of people voting out who were neither of those - poor people who had had enough of being ****ed who wanted to stick two fingers up at the arse-holes in westminster. And who can blame them.

People at work are talking about making use of their Irish hereditary to get an EU passport. I don't have that luxury, being English as far back as records exist. I'm worried for my children, and my future grandchildren.

Congrats to those who got what they wanted. I hope we don't all live to regret it.
 
Cameron and most of his colleagues are out of touch with most of the UK and never expected us to vote leave.

What a fool, this is all he will be remembered for.
 
Fair play to David Cameron. He simply had to step down following this vote and he's done so immediately but is staying on until October to steady the ship. He had the courage to let the people decide their future, even though he's had the opposite view.

I remember seeing him interviewed.

"If we leave, will you resign as it can't be tenable to stay due to conflict of interests?"

"No, absolutely not."

And David Cameron has resigned.... So much for keeping your word lol.
