This sort of crap "criticism" does the same to me. What is one to make of your classy "input"?
Well said Digby. The remainers are causing this uncertainty by kicking the can down the road and thwarting Brexit at every turn
"Pot calls Kettle Back" shocker. You think Brexit might be anything to do with the desertion then? Really?
Which MPs from the right wing voted against the deal and hence thwarted Brexit?
Fuck off, ignorant.. It's a lot more difficult than simple cunts predicted... We'll be associate members
I'm missing something here. The Tory party called the referendum. The Tory party are in power in government because they have the most seats. With the help of the DUP the Tory party can do anything they want and can't be outvoted. The Tory party, on it's own, negotiated everything to do with Brexit. I don't see how anyone can blame anyone other than the Tory party for all this mess.
Ok we might be tearing all our trade ggrements with the E.U. and by default tearing up all the bilateral agreements the E.U. has with about 60 countries worldwide. But if we Believe in Britain all will be fine, right? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Silly trout Barnett... Digby is 💯 % correct.
Jaguar Landrover went down the pan over twenty years ago. Nothing to do with Brexit.
The BBC has become a laugh exactly because of low quality presenters like this woman. The new name, Biased British Corporation.
British BS Corporation. Time to downsize it and slash salaries for this nauseating bunch. oh and cancel the TV license.
Bureaucratic Bolshevist Company.
ffs , i guess you get your 'news' from the Daily Express or Daily Mail . Grow up
@Daniel Clark Clark because it's those newspapers that peddle all the Brexit bullshit . The BBC's problem is that it is too balanced in giving nutters like Nigel Farage way more airtime than they ever deserved . That's why we are in this mess now
my first point wasnt directed at you !
She starts to lose the argument then throws in the word hatred....then calls him a Nazi!!!!
Lose the argument? She called him out for his bullshit lies, christ, no wonder you morons are so easy to manipulate.
Umm, I think Alun you have just proved Starman right by repeating the same error as the interviewer. To reply in the sort of language I think you can understand, "only a cretin like you would assume everyone who disagrees with the BBC is a moron".
Jaguar Landrover actually stated their reduction in production was due to reduced demand and nothing to do with Brexit! Talk about spin.
Correct, due to decreased demand in China, US and problems with Diesel market . Also Honda stated clearly Swindon was NOT anything to do with Brexit . Emma is a shameless totally partial Remain attack hack ..
Also a massive reduction in diesel cars, nothing to do with leaving the EU
we havent left yet , there will be massive jobs lost if leave without a deal . And remember how you were lied to that we would get a great deal yet now your leaver liars are saying we will leave without a deal yet you still believe in them . Johnson was holding up a kipper only 3 weeks ago blaming the packaging on the EU , when it was in fact our law , but it doesnt matter to these dispicable chancers who dont care about the truth because they know their supporters are too deluded to actually listen

trouble would still be the same if there was 100% agreement in the uk ... how does the eu allow uk goods cross its borders check free while at the same time the uk gives two fingers to the SM and CU ..
If the EU go that road then it would finish the EU ..
Digby either does not care or fails to understand that basic point..
The EU agreed the withdrawal agreement it was the UK parliment failed to vote for it

THAT WOMAN IS AWFUL TOTALLY WASTED DIGBYS TIME SHAME ON THE BBC!!
So this woman is the know-all about how business works, Lord Digby Jones knows nothing is her attitude.
he expresses no credible answer to the very questions he stated,yes the woman seem to be more inform than a self contradicting digby
@Jericho I did watch it, and I think as a business man he probably knows a lot more than she does. Your comment "fat lord with a silver spoon in his mouth" probably says more about you than him.
@Vince Howells He seems to have done quite well for himself if he knows nothing.
He's actually trying to explain, she doesn't want to know about that!
How is this woman running a business show? Everything he says is correct. He accepts the minor points she makes which are correct. She doesn't accept a single thing he says, For instance, she provides JLR as an example of Brexit job losses. He correctly points to declining sales in china and diesel saes being hit by a change in consumer and political attitudes. She simply says she can point to other examples. Well great, how about accepting you were wrong then and coming up with another specific example to be challenged? She should find a job she is competent at.

Why does anyone allow the BBC interviewer to argue with them???
My word this woman is so irritating. I’m sure she must be related to Owen Jones.
England runs away . Germany won . Europe , The Great Germany .
This interview is terrible she just won’t listen.
Boot on other foot. In fact she is right. Notice Jones is flustered? Why do you think that is? Come on, keep up!
@alan boardman The last part of what you say is questionable - I'll ignore your silly jibe - and a properly conducted referendum (though I'm with RMogg "Referenda are incompatible with democracy" are with him? ) on the Irish or Scits model would have required more than a wafer thin win to effect profound constitutional change. Heck FARAGE said he's dispute a narrow win before Leave won by it.
The big trouble is no-one knows what Leave meant, not required to. At the time many Leavers were arguing for associate membership and Farage isn't the only one to have moved the pitch if not the goalposts...."people want to leave"? Not enough to warrant such a momentous change and in a dismal referendum campaign Banks et al were literally criminal and that bus poster merely the most egregious lie.....(Mind you, the Project Fear thing was also a disgrace). All this springing from a Tory party matter!
@@garymorgan3314 he is flustered because she won't listen. Like most remoaners he has to repeat himself 10 times and they still ask the same question. They just keep asking thinking the answer will change.

And leave out 'remoaners' as it makes you seem thick. It certainly doesn't hurt.
You one of those wants us to Leave first then make a deal? Have you seen how India, China and the USA have made it very clear we'll get no favours from them? Even Leavers are beginning to admit that GDP will be lessened on Leaving. You think the Leave working class areas will benefit from this"getting our country back"? The likes of Rothermere - a non Dom - and Dacre, in receipt of EU subsidy for his Sussex farm - are telling their people lies. Johnson, a Remainer in fact, is in this for self not country.
@@garymorgan3314 most businesses types? Most of our GDP is home grown. 15% is exports, 7% maximum (and falling) is the EU. The only businesses that you listen to are the ones that lobby the EU so they get the lions share and leave most businesses with scraps. Those are the businesses you support.
Sometimes, I wish I could stop paying my licence fees every time I watch the bbc go against 17.4m people.
Not once have I seen the bbc challenge pro Remain guests. Always attacking guests who are pro Brexit. Sad.
@Luke Sliminn Quite right. Up to £13 million it was revealed in one year.

He doesn’t want to admit that Brexit is the main cause of uncertainty in the business community.
This was published by Mr Cameron's government in a leaflet to every house in the UK. This is the final quote on page 20... This is your decision. The Government will implement what you decide."
'Brexit means Brexit' as May kept repeating but what did that actually mean? For most it meant no more foreigners. That's all I can see because 'taking back control' has never been explained at all.

@@stevechappell5777 Its never been about "foreigners" it's about those who arrive legally and those who don't. That means illegally. The "foreigner" discussion was largely created by folks lobbying to remain.
@@simonbroddle754 How many actually arrived illegally? Tourists have been allowed to travel in both directions for a lifetime for most people and the vast majority always returned to their home country. Signing on for benefits is impossible without a NHI number as you know. Non-EU citizens have been constrained from onward travel in France for years so if anyone had a right to complain it was France.
If travellers had no means of support that is a different problem which could have been addressed from within the EU. Now we cannot return unannounced arrivals to our shore to France or the EU unless they agree to take them. What recourse now?
Sadly, the bottom line on the argument was that the sound of foreigners talking on the high street and food aisles containing anything other than mushy peas and spaghetti hoops was unwelcome.
The variety foreign residents brought with them was a red rag to a xenophobic bull and Brexit proposers bigged it up as a problem.
The media coverage of criminals from Asian backgrounds made as much of their nationality as the crimes they'd committed and when those crimes were also committed by white indigenous folk downplayed or didn't report at all. Those who rarely saw any foreigner adopted the Brexit rhetoric out of fear thinking that would cure the 'problem'.

Jobs have been lost every day since being in the EU--Just taalk to our Fishermen, Steel workers, Ship builders, Coal miners. and more. And most of it because contracts MUST go through the EU!
Brexit didn’t cause these job to be lost It’s was Thatcher Government politics of the 1980’s that shutdown the Coal Miners, Steel Workers, Shipbuilding, etc.
At that time the EU didn’t exists.
It was EEC ( European Economic Community ).
This was a free trade area where countries traded without tariffs at the same time they could do there own trade deals with countries outside the EEC.
The EEC had no European Parliament or council of minsters.
It was setup to stop future European wars. Laid out in the Treaty of Rome of 1957.
Brexit caused our fisherman to be out of work. Go check it out
@@stewben1169 Margaret Thatcher didnt shut down anything. She stopped subsidies that were going £1bn to steel, £1bn to coal, £2 bn to car manufacturers, £1bn to shipbuilding. Instead she invested in capital spending also using the proceeds of privatisation, and gave us some of the most efficient industry in the world. Only a complete fool cannot see that the state of the nation in 1990 was dramatically better than it was in 1979. Incidentally subsidies are not allowed under EU rules so they had to be stopped some time. The Labour Government 1974 to 1979 had been using sticky plaster to save jobs for the short term but those policies were going nowhere.

A great example of why the BBC should be in room 101.
The reason he is totally correct is that Brexit hasn't happened yet so it can't be because of Brexit. Therefore (logic here) it must be because of the uncertainty created by our useless political class in Westminster who are too busy arguing to get behind what the people of this country voted for. It's not difficult to understand!
You must still believe in santa-claus. It's called planning for the future. Once the UK is out, it's too late for companies to get out. If companies konw what deal there will be, for example a no deal brexit, they will get out ASAP. A deal with transitional periode, it will depends on the future trade deal. No single market and no custom union, they will get the fk out ASAP.
Not well argued: faced with Britain seceding from the EU, it's rather obvious that large companies might plan in advance. Can you infer why or does your fax "logic" stop here? I think it conveniently does. Don't be so facile.
Reread what you have written and you will find it rests on a non sequitur. Jones is very much on his own in his opinions about the matter. Worth asking yourself why that might be. Absing the BBC will not do you any good.
@alan boardman spot on you've got him down to a tee
alan boardman Agree, and it should be remembered that the 'old' people who voted to leave had experience, logic and common sense on their side

Of course we know your mob's view of "experts"; why ask an expert when you could try an ignoramus. You have Odey and Minford who back you up - Jones is no economist and is thick anyway - but, funnily enough, most economists think your ideas are disastrous. What mandate have you for Crash Out anyway? None. "Will of the People", bugger off and read some Rousseau and try a bit harder. Your ideas are fatuous and the funny thing is, even when 'you' aren't being racists like Farage, people still largely disagree.
You accept we live in a Parliamentary democracy? You Agree only 37% are for Leave yet that's fine for an epochal decision....Yup you think we should go ahead anyway.....I reckon it won't happen but just Leave, no, you have no right to do that. From the beginning Leave has been a fiasco and still we don't know what it means.
I love the whining here though: almost all the press is on your side yet you moan as if you are beleaguered. Why IS that? Irwin Steltzer, Paul Krugman, Joseph Stiglitz, Amartya Sen and an array of Nobel laureates all think you are crackers. Why? (I think I know).
Care to tell me a little about Farage's trouble with Black and Coloured persons? It shouldn't be right to bring it up but funny that your crew DO have a problem with our exotic brethren. Coincidence, surely? He makes it relevant. His enthusiasm for Poland and Hungary's erm, robust polity is instructive too. So much for the British tradition of tolerance.
In case you still cannot see the iceberg, do enlighten me as to the huge discrepancies between what the Leave ideologues were saying in 2016 and what they maintain now. You can't wriggle out of that, it's deadly. You are all over the shop.
I mean, hoestly, can you think of a more stupid negotiation "position" than the one I hear from Leavers, "Crash out, then negotiate." That is as wrong-headed as you can get. Yet you buy that, too. Eeek.

He is spot on, the EU are negotiating with full knowledge that the ruling elite do not want to leave, therefore even from the start they have the upper hand.

IN a terrible campaign Leave distinguished itself with the bus lie, the various ideas its campaigners favoured varied and what, for example Farage and Hannan were arguing for then is far fro what they say nw. Johnson, as you know, is a Leaver for career reasons only.
The great historian Keith Thomas has said that he'd have needed proportionately more of the entire membership to change his cricket club's constitution. If you look at the arrangements made by the Scots for Independence and the Irish for two potentially incendiary constitutional changed, Gay marriage and abortion, you wills that we needed constitutional conventions and a decisive result to manage such change. I'm proudly British and I'm not prepared to stand idly by while the likes of you wreck the constitute especially so dishonestly.
Wto terms; laughable - U.S giving us favourable terms? China? India? Of course they won't and you are naive as well as ignorant if you think so.
@alan boardman what have you won you fool ? Leavers have no arguments left so can happily listen to this busted flush and think the interviewer is in the wrong . Nearly all of the main stream media 'newspapers' pushed for Brexit hard , yet Leavers say the MSM are liars , but only when it comes to the BBC . Its getting embarrassing now
The Brexit Job Loss Index is an attempt to keep track of the number of jobs lost in the UK due to Brexit.
Here are the key stats (last updated 31/01/2020):
Total Jobs Lost: 436,296
Total Annual Wages Lost*: £12,511,660,392
Reduction in Annual Income Tax & National Insurance Receipts**: £3,747,289,625.52
Emma Barnet was excellent in trying to establish the thrust of Digby Jones argument which appeared to be a combination of contradictory & inflammatory in equal measure without explaining the impact on the UK economy. A disappointing perspective from the former chairman of the CBI.
The way I see it is that brexit hasn't happened yet so no jobs have been lost as a result of it
Jobs were lost long ago as soon as the vote in 2016 occurred. The European Medical Agency based in Canary Wharf relocated overnight. Anyone working there either had to move to Europe or lose their job. Taxes paid in the UK left with it. Being able to look ahead is what Digby Jones has made a reputation out of. He has now developed degenerative eye disease and is trading on a reputation he is no longer fit to trade on.

Emma Barnett is not playing devils advocate here, this is not an interview, this is her having an impassioned argument with someone in a pub. This is why we don’t like the media any more, the interviewers can’t hold back their own views. Every news report is an opinion piece
I'm glad I boycotted the BBC years ago.
Digby should be in Brussels doing our thing not spineless remainers !!
Do you REALLY think he could have done anything more than pontificate? He had no idea what was coming down the line because he refused to get beyond his 'We're really important and the EU know it' line. Nothing is now going right and we our economic prosperity is threatened. What do you say now? 9th Feb 2021?

I wish they would hurry up and get the hell out of Europe. Every time you turn on the TV or pick up a paper its Brexit, Brexit, Brexit ad nauseam.
Never had a proper job Barnett, who has never created a single job, assumes she knows better than a world-renowned businessman.
She doesn't get it because she is BBC.. What Lord DJ says is true. If there is good news it is despite brexit. If it's bad news it is because of Brexit.
Too simplistic. An experiment: you are a large multinational corporation. Any reason Britain seems less desirable now? Of course (and you know it). Digby is flustered because he knows too - and Barnett nails him with the specific Silicon Triangle example. He has no answer and nor do you.
Ms Barnett rolled off a load of statements that are factually untrue and deserve better explanation. As a hard left Corbynista Barnett doesn’t understand the business world, or how politicians and the media skew the arguments. Time to close down the BBC and let independent broadcasters do the job honestly and transparently.
List the statements please.

She did. What he was saying was a big, fat series of lies.
Did you? Have there been ANY positives from Brexit seen since it was finally signed into being? The list of losses are ever growing and we haven't even agreed a deal with the EU over services, 80% 0f our economy. Even the seafood industry is folding. What irony.

This interview is worse than the Ann Widacomb one.
Lord Digby is correct but the BBC is bias. How many times Lord Digby has to use the word uncertainty but she didn't get it.
To the female interviewer: we haven’t even left as of yet. Perhaps staying in is causing all the problems? Second point: how on earth did we get by before the EU? How do Switzerland and Norway manage it?
the two countries you speak of have deals which are much lower than the UK currently has or will be prepared to negotiate for and definitely not on WHO terms so be careful what you wish for. If you think for one minute the Chinese or Americans as examples are going to do a deal the same or better than they have already done with the EU then be ready for an even bigger disappointment. 80 million verses 500 million economy
ian0837 Your reply is measured and constructive. It’s all too rare. For me however sovereignty is paramount, trade is secondary. How rough the ride will be after October 31st is far from clear. Patrick Minford provides a more positive view of matters from a WTO perspective.
@@ian0837 we can make our own deals with anyone we like if we leave sure the deal might not be as good but if we can make enough of them we could get by just fine
@@ian0837 Actually it'll be an economy of 430 million once the UK leaves but I understand what you are saying. Over half of the current 'population' of the EU is based in 4 countries, Germany, UK, France and Italy (funnily enough the ones with the most money). I completely respect what you have said here however, to think the USA (who don't have a deal with the EU) or China will not want to sign a deal with similar or equal benefits is in 'my' opinion incorrect. The average full time wage (30 million full-time workers) in the UK last year was £35k which is by my maths about a trillion pounds in total. Any country with a bit of business acumen will want to be able to tap into that (after the chancellor takes his cut of it of course). Only time will tell which side of the fence is the better side to be on.
@@cybnblau What exactly do you mean by sovereignty? How exactly would it be expanded post-Brexit.
Also, we know what the ride will be like after October: no deal is almost certain at this point, unless Britain makes concessions to the UE, which is political suicide for the Tories. A no deal will lead to a loss of 30bn pounds in tax revenue annually according to the IMF in the "best case scenario". The government has already cashed out 29bn in preparation for no deal.
May has cocked up Brexit, by being weak , by being a remainer . This has caused uncertainty in business and should have all been sorted by 29 March 2019 at the latest.
As it happens her deal was a stronger one than was achieved by Boris. His never touched on services at all - 80% of the UK national income - while he was fixated on a £1bn fishing industry. What do you say now? 9th Feb 2021?
There isn't any chance of remaining or rejoining the EU, Brexit is done.
No provision for re membership under the same conditions where written in the agreement.
If the UK wants to rejoin which the UK won't they have to adhere to the Cooenhagen rule which they won't.
When people vote in an advisory referendum it was final ....people or what the media calls remoaners can moan as much as they want too it won't change anything.
I've written before many times now Brexit is done..it doesn't exist and the UK has to decide the next move and I hope its the right one as a trade war with the EU would be catastrophic and cost everyone billions in fines .....
Great man should have been an MP & not a lord. We should have been preparing for a no deal 2 years ago and not leaving it to the last minute.
He'd have been an awful M.P. let alone P.M. as he amply demonstrates in his windy response to Barnett's examples of actual jobs lost. Identify his rejoinder, I din't notice anything but him getting agitated, I wonder why (and so should you). Agree withe last point (accepting for the sake of argument the Leave vote provided a mandate. Which I don't).. Whose fault that we weren't?
The bbc needs to just slip away, such a lost cause
So now journalists debate with the people they interview???? If I was Lord Digby Jones I would have either of got up and left or sat there and said absolutely nothing.
I suspect she has never run a business in her life ... But now she is some sort of expert on the subject.
So what? Is her point correct or not? If it's so weak why is Jones so flustered? He has no answer except to assert he's wrong but, er, he was right to. Sort of. Amateur hour.
@@garymorgan3314 I am a large cog in a large business i wouldn't go as far to say i run a business but i defo have a large part in it and i can say, she has no idea what she is taking about and the gentleman is correct. the uncertainty and fact we didn't leave 26th march is what might tank many small/mid company's.
in our industry we prepared a lot for a no deal and all the suppliers behind us in the chain did the same, it cost a lot of money but its something we had to do.
he is flustered because she isn't listening to him, what is so blindingly obvious to him (and he is correct about) she cannot or will not get though he bias lefty skull.
@@wormwood8071 Fair enough, I won't gainsay an area where you'd know and I don't since I am self-employed, not even a cog.

Anyway I hope for your sake you are correct. Jones though, no not the brightest is he? Interesting the likes of Ferdinand Mount, pro business but a writer, not at all convinced.

Emma Barnett is selling the BBC's REMAIN position because it gets given a chunk of money annually by the EU. The BBC needs to be overhauled and the Remainers removed from office. It is the BBC that needs re-educating to accept what the people voted for unless it is to be branded undemocratic. Digby is spot on right as usual. This was not a debate; it was Emma trying to shout down Digby. P{oor BBC journalism again.
I tell you what if she can't understand what he is saying she's in the wrong job, it was painful to watch him try to explian something so clearly and to not get it is eather really thick or ignorant you choose.
No, this is debate and Jones lost. She identified job losers and he was unable to stand up his "Brexit won't cost one job." Which is patently false, hence his discombobulation. Finis.

House of Lords. Isn't that a bunch of unelected officials?
Yes .. except that "Lord" Digby EARNED his lordship in 2007, he was not born to it. He earned it after years in business at the highest levels of many companies and business orgs. He was granted it so that, despite not being a parliamentarian, he could be assigned the Minister of State for Trade and Investment ministerial post in 2007 and served under late 2008.
He took his seat in the House of Lords as an independent crossbencher, much to his credit, and is not aligned with either party. Perhaps this is why he seems so sane ... I swear that partisan party politics will be the undoing of the western world. They are the main reason driving most of May's horrendous decisions over the past year.
@@richardlefaive1944till, nobody voted for him. He was appointed to the post, then GIVEN the title and a place in House of Lords. The comment has to do with the fact that there are 'unelected officials' not only in Brussels.

BREXIT FIRST AND FOREMOST AN ABSOLUTE PRIORITY FOR FUTURE STRENGTH AND PROSPERITY !
FUCKING MORON!!!
Forty years ago there was a paint manufacturer in the North West of England called MacPherson Paints. The company was bought out by a Dutch company who said all jobs where safe. Eighteen months later, they closed the site down, and any remaining contracts went to their sister company in Hull. Two years later, the Hull company was closed and all production was shipped to the now parent company in Holland. This procedure is called, 'how to buy your competitor, run them for a short time, close them down, thus cornering the market!'
BREXIT was not even thought of then, and neither was the Maastricht Treaty!
It's been a standard practice for foreign companies when buying out UK ones, to smile when taking them over, and to laugh when closing them.
I hope someone of influence is reading this, because from now on my proposal should be as follows:-
Any UK companies that want to sell to foreign investors can only sell on 45% of their company. 55% must stay in UK hands to safeguard the workforce from any immediate threat of redundancy. And doing this will protect long term UK industries from going bust!
