Jaguar Land Rover, Ford and Honda deliver triple dose of bad news for UK car industry
Thousands of job cuts and a post-Brexit production shutdown announced
Jaguar Land Rover, Ford and Honda delivered a triple dose of bad news for the UK car industry on Thursday.
JLR will cut 4,500 jobs, predominantly in the UK, while Ford is to cut thousands of jobs across Europe. Honda announced it will pause production at its Swindon plant in April in anticipation of border disruption after Brexit on 29 March.
JLR revealed the job cuts as part of a £2.5bn cost-cutting drive aimed at maintaining profitability as the company battles plummeting sales in China and confusion around diesel emissions rules.

Life Could Be A Dream
- by Dutchy and the Continentals
(Hey nonny ding dong, alang, alang, alang
Boom ba-doh, ba-doo, ba-doodle-ay)
Oh, life could be a dream
If I could take you up in paradise in Europe
If you would tell me it's Socialism that you love
Life could be a dream, sweetheart
Oh, life could be a dream
If only all my precious plans would come true
If you would let me spend my whole life judgin' you
Life could be a dream, sweetheart
Now every time I look at you
Something is on my mind
If you do what I tell you to
Baby, we'd be so fine
Oh, life could be a dream
If I could take you up in paradise in Europe
If you would tell me that it's Socialism that you love
Life could be a dream, sweetheart'
Sh-boom sh-boom, ya-da-da da-da-da da-da-da da
Sh-boom sh-boom, ya-da-da da-da-da da-da-da da
Sh-boom sh-boom,…

The "Man" doesn't mean that type of man, so... no.
100% verifiable facts or your money back. Anti-fascist. Enemy of woo - theistic or otherwise. Cloth is not an antiviral. Imagination and fantasy is no substitute for tangible reality. Wishing doesn't make it real.
