This book revisits the long contested negotiation between the
Thatcher administration and Nissan for the latter's first
green-field plant in Europe. From the very beginning, the plant
took Britain's EC/EU membership and tariff-free access to the
single market as a token. A considerable amount of aid including
component supplies was provided to attract Japanese investment and
to prevent its transfer to the continent. The successful launch of
Sunderland highlighted improved Anglo-Japanese relations and put an
end to the Japan-EC/EU trade conflict. But the price was paid by
Nissan's slump and fall, and by trade unions in both countries
failing to keep counterchecks on management. Brexit and the fall of
Carlos Ghosn were a double blow to Anglo-Japanese relations which
are in a state of drift and need redefinition.
