Car industry @SMMT calls on Government AND directly to Parliament “to take No Deal option off the table” or risk “destroying this vital UK industry”.
But doesn’t mention PM’s deal.
No Deal wd have “immediate devastating impact, halting production, irreversible severe damage”

... my sense no doubt that industry would prefer PMs deal to a No Deal - but there wasn’t enthusiasm and heads are now being turned towards softer options... also if the Government is now telling business No Deal is no longer unlikely, unsurprising that we get this reaction
... the DIRECT appeal to MPs to take No Deal off the table is quite something. As I said - heads are being turned... even more so since the NO Deal ramp up.
Full auto industry release... twenty years of covering politics, business and economics I have never seen a press release from a key industry saying that a Cabinet approved policy direction [ie No Deal Brexit] risks “destroying” it...
