Billionaire James Dyson, industrialist and land-owner and recipient of many an EU farming grant, has announced that he's going to manufacture his electric cars in Singapore. The fact that this company is making things outside of the UK might strike some as slightly hypocritical of the very vocal pro-Brexit and pro-UK (knighted) business leader, but, his company makes pretty much all of the things they make outside of the UK already, so he could argue that this is normal. My question would be is there any link between the EU announcing a free-trade agreement with Singapore the day *before* the Dyson announcement, is this just a coincidence? For someone who promotes "ruthlessness in business" as his mantra, it's hard to believe that this uber-salient fact had passed Dyson by.
