As a direct result of E.U. troublemaking with supplies, Nissan will now produce more of its batteries in the UK. Brexit has changed from a risk, says the firm, into an opportunity.

[Jefferson @Jefferson_MFG]

UPDATE: Nissan plans to increase its investment in Britain as it rolls out greener technology. "We've invested over £400 million so far (in Sunderland) and we are planning over the coming years to exceed the £1 billion investment mark." #UKmfg🇬🇧
