Actually, we do not know what preparations and contingency plans have been developed by those that matter.

For instance, Siemens, a German company with several factories in the UK. These facilities are integrated into the Siemens whole, including their factories in the USA.

I don’t know about Brit firms but we can think of Ford. Ford makes vehicles and probably exports some to the EU and conversely imports some models from the EU. Ditto the USA and Mexico.

Another company that certainly has plans is Shell operating as Shell UK. Shell UK does not have it’s head in the sand

These and other companies operating behind closed doors have certainly made plans to continue beyond BREXIT.

Bert is correct. I work with many companies that are moving operations to Central Europe. Yes, many are keeping their operations in the UK and many are shifting out

Now even if the UK goes for HARD Brexit, it could still have managed if it came with a firm idea of what it wanted. But it did not

I was never talking about companies I was talking about the Uk government. That was quite clear in my post. It has nothing to do with individual corporate entities
