• Last night on R4 there was an interview with a business owner of a manufacturer of dehumidifiers and water coolers.
    His argument was tariffs etc aren't deals breaks just frustrations. All you need on business is a good product people want to buy. He thought leaving was good.
    6 of his 250 employees are from the EU, he thinks Eastern European immigrants naming Romania as effecting the labour market due to their volume.
    Of course this was the other foreigners not the friendly Ines he employees.

    I suppose summary of his view would be the new joiners are getting more than they are giving to the EU and that leaving is just change we have to deal with.

  • What he didn't get asked is whether his "good product" would continue to sell strongly in France when its 30% more expensive, or whether he'd modelled what happened to his business when raw material prices have a similar hike.
