Make UK's chief executive says the country's manufacturing sector has been let down by domestic political chaos and demands action to help bolster innovation and growth.

Make UK says trading relationships with EU firms have increasingly soured forcing UK factories to re-shore supply chainsThe head of the manufacturing sector's lobby group has demanded a"reset" in the UK's relationship with the European Union, claiming international suppliers have increasingly turned their backs on the country.

Make UK said the findings underlined the"unrelenting pressure" on company supply chains from increased costs and geo-political uncertainty. Mr Phipson said:"It's fair to say that the last few years and, the last twelve months in particular, have been some of the most momentous times we have ever experienced.

"Since it was announced there has already been some $90bn worth of green investment in the US and there's a real risk that being outside the EU the UK risks being squeezed between the efforts of the US and the EU's own Green Investment Plan.

What a surprise, it’s not Brexit that’s the issue it’s the way May and Johnson delivered it. The fault lies firmly with flighty Cameron and sit on the fence Corbyn

We're being robbed !!

Reset on a relationship that was working fine 🫣

Absolute Rubbish So Brexit has caused supply chain issues for Porsche BMW Audi Land Rover and many many other manufacturers

BorisJohnson and his cronies should be absolutely ashamed at what they have done to our country.

Brexit still the madness puzzles

Enjoying those brexit benefits...

Brexit disaster.

yattongas Oooops

If only someone had foreseen this...

The 'they need us more' brigade will be frothing at this, but not to worry, Rees-Mogg will tell them it's all fine and point at dinghies.

The ‘great reset’ is that

Would think this may be more important than stopping the boats but hey, that doesn't get the pulses going does it.

Yeah. Let's take more manufacturing away from the EU!

Looks like sour grapes by our remainer's

ColonelEscargot 'EU suppliers now more cautious about doing business with the UK. A third of non-EU suppliers (!) took the same view.' Tory Brexit - brought to you by the party of 'F**k business'.

Give us access to the single market, guarantee you it will cut costs, transport times and make businesses more productive and competitive.

Yes but what about boats, African country, wokerarty, isarseable stabintgebackashot..... And other nonsense.

Shouldn't have kept quiet during the referendum then.

Bukld more warehouses so we can import more is the tory policy

'project fear', as predicted.

mikegalsworthy The UK seriously can’t cope with this much winning! RejoinTheEU 🇪🇺

Brexit benefits again

Has the manufacturing sector not heard about our new relationship with Outer Mongolia? They should stop talking the country down

Oops, we broke manufacturing.

mikegalsworthy Reset? How about RejoinEU?

The only benefit of Brexit is that Bob Geldof might hold a concert in our honour. 😏

All the sad remoaners will be reaching for their boxes of tissues to dry their eyes from their uncontrollable sobbing! 🤣🤣🇬🇧🇬🇧👍🇬🇧

Yeah but Sue Grey, ya know, Sue Grey...

The brexit situation could not be worse yet we have a political class ignoring it completely. Sunak because of the ERG and Lab because of the press.

mikegalsworthy The government will just say something along the lines of “they don’t recognise these figures”, “the manufacturing sector should stay out of politics”, “brexit benefits”, blah blah

UK don't collapse before the US! That would be embarrassing

You mean, Brexit isn't working? But The Mail told me otherwise...

RejoinTheEU
