The thing is that the relocation to Poland may have happened regardless although cost pressures are stronger now with the decline in the Pound and rise in prices. In France, the white goods manufacturer Whirlpool is moving its manufacturing plant to Poland and they're both EU 27 countries.
But my friend's was heavily Brexit. They have key European staff who are nervous over their residency here and some have left and also the company is unsure how it can serve EU countries from outside the EU so the combination tipped the decision. Hopefully the company can rebuild in the future here.

I voted leave hoping for a better future expecting short term pain.
as a near minimum wage factory worker remain would have carried on with stagnating wages due to oversupply in the low skilled jobs market and large increases in the cost of housing due to labour and the conservatives refusal to take over house building.

Really? or are they just trying to keep their remaining workers 'onside' before the rest of the jobs go ? Your Blue Riband will be Polish from now on, crap biscuit anyway, the KitKat is far superior.

It isn't fake to the people that have lost their jobs.

No just Mr K's slant on it.

From the article he posted.

A spokesman for Nestle said at a 45 day consultation was currently taking place involving the proposed reduction of 298 roles throughout this year and next at York, Fawdon, Halifax and Girvan in Scotland.

He said the move was not linked to Brexit “The proposed changes include amended and standardised shift patterns at each factory and, at Fawdon, the most complex of Nestlé’s UK confectionery sites, the transfer of Blue Riband production to a Nestlé factory in Poland," he said.

But fake as it shouldn't be in this brexit thread as it has nothing to do with brexit.

Mate, you should know by now that for some folks everything bad which happens in the UK is a direct result of Brexit whereas what little good which ever happens now is in spite of it and won't last.

More Project Fear nonsense, they must be making this all up.

Deutsche Bank AG’s top compliance executive said as many as 4,000 U.K. jobs at the lender could be at risk of being moved to other locations as the country leaves the European Union.
About 2,000 jobs would be affected if all of the bank’s client-facing staff had to move, and an additional 2,000 could be at risk in associated functions, Sylvie Matherat, the German lender’s chief regulatory officer, said Wednesday in Frankfurt. Deutsche Bank, which has roughly 9,000 employees in the country including 7,000 in London, needs more clarity before making a final decision, she said.

Where Are London Bankers Moving After Brexit?
“For front office people, if you want to deal with an EU client, you need to be based in the EU,” Matherat said. “Does it mean I have to move all the front office people to Germany or not? We’re speaking of 2,000 people.”
“Then you have the local supervisors who rightly say, come on, if you have your client here, if you book your operation here, you need to have your risk management capacity here,” she added. “It means another 2,000 people.”
The uncertainty triggered by Britain’s decision to leave the European Union has prompted banks to consider setting up new hubs in the EU to secure continued access to clients in the bloc. In all, London could lose 10,000 banking jobs and 20,000 financial-services positions as clients move assets out of the U.K. after Brexit, according to the Bruegel think tank. Other estimates range from 4,000 to 232,000 jobs.

Transparify has awarded Bruegel five stars out of five for transparency, acknowledging its openness on governance and financing. The news article itself is nothing to do with Breugel. It's a report from a conference.

I knew you would be sad enough to try this, did not take long. As others have already pointed out. Nestle have said nothing to do with Brexit.

And it's total nonsense.

In other news, it could rain fish in Scunthorpe sometime in the next two years :/

Transparency and bias aren't opposites. All this means is they are transparently biased.

'You're not LISTENING!'

Windy Miller snaps as she's told to 'STOP obstructing Brexit'

Appearing on Channel 4, Ms Miller locked horns with Jonathan Isaby, the editor of the website Brexit Central, as he said the campaigner was still in denial about the results of the June referendum.

Mr Isaby said: “I’m afraid people like Gina are in denial of the result because actually the majority of Remain voters now think the Government should get on with Brexit.

“We do have democracy in this country and when you have a referendum there has to be an acceptance of the result.
