Manufacturing and Employment

I cannot disagree. This country is unique in its gold-plating—it is absolutely gold-plated all the way through. As I said, we are on a different playing field from the rest of Europe. Toyota vehicles are produced in Japan, where European competition rules do not apply. Ministers ought to question their own judgment and have the guts to stand up for British industry—the Minister is rightly standing up for British industry and Ellesmere Port by using a Vauxhall. We want to see more backbone and Ministers saying, "I don't want a car that's been shipped round the world with a bigger carbon footprint. I want one that's built in the UK. What's good for France is good for the UK." That is the kind of motivation that we want.
