What a lot of rude posts from Remoaners, especially Vinrouge who doesnt even live in the UK.......

I didnt vote because I see equal benefits of staying and leaving. The UK Government has been amazingly incompetent at leaving and the EU bureaucrats seem intransigent and spiteful, but at the end of the day we can allow in or out of the UK whatever goods we want. It will be up to the EU whether they allow goods in - no democracy refuses to allow goods out unless they represent a security risk, and a few nuts and bolts coming back to euroland as a wing dont fall into this category. Can anyone explain why a european country would refuse to allow an airbus wing to come in??????

Airbus's largest shareholders are the Germans and French who are on the other side of the negotiating table. If you believe this is a non political announcement you really are naive. The reality is we will leave the EU well before Airbus or any other major EU company can shift any production. What thy subsequently do will depend on their experience and instructions from their political masters after March 2019, not their posturing beforehand. The worry is the EU will try to punish the UK by closing their borders. We have the freedom to keep our borders open to goods. This will hurt euroland as much as the UK.

Lets try to have a sensible debate
