Mr Hawes always seems to.................

............complain much more on behalf of the "traders" side of SMMT. The 2008 scrappage scheme kept car salesmen in commission, and dealers' car preparation cleaners busy. But on the key element of "manufacturers" jobs, it was the likes of the Korean and European plant employees, and financials, who benefitted - at the expense of significant imports.
