Let's go 'NO DEAL' , stuff it to the whining remoaners as well as bloodying German and French imports on the nose.

I certainly wouldn't be bothered about these going bust..

Hugo Boss
Daimler
Mercedes
Bayer

Not sure why they are still even companies given the history. I know if they were British companies with that history in no circumstances would they exist.

And then there's this petit nugget,

THE pound has surged against the euro after market confidence grew over a Brexit deal, but the eurozone suffered a damaging blow after Germany fell into “recession”.

Uh huh.

None of the "righteous liberals" mention this though? Why not? Do you really think if Vodafone or Capita had been "involved" in the deaths of the millions of people 70 years ago that these companies would exist? No chance. But they seem to get a free pass...😮 Double standards.🙄

Still not answered the question about the German companies but you did find a link to a few British companies from hundreds of years ago just again to show your disdain for anything British. Well done.

Double standards eh? Ok for companies here to benefit from slaves but not in Germany?

Slavery has been a part of human existence for 5,000 years, if not longer, and continues to be so albeit on a reduced scale so, so why is it always the african trade that is the centre of attention? I do not hear anyone demanding that Italy reimburse us for the Roman legions enslaving Ancient Britain or the the various other empires that have risen and subsequently disappeared?
No, it's all about bashing the UK by liberal lefties who need a hairshirt to appease their conscience. Remember the USA gained independence 100 years before slavery was supposedly abolished and while I agree Britain was complicit in early shipping, it was the Arabs who harvested the labour force and plantation owners who continued the practice long after the atlantic trade had ceased.

It was bad but there has been a lot worse both before and since and we should learn from it as opposed to trying to redress history.

The greatest slavers were the Muslim Arabs and the Africans. The west joined that party rather late, and it was the west who poured great resources into the abolition of the trade, a trade that still continues to this day in the same quarters.

If that's the best you can do I pity you. Britain led the charge against slavery, soy boys still Ponce around cooing over early vw cars and calling them desirable classics while the families of the slaves who built them are still around.

"An estimated 12 million people worked as slaves at virtually every German company during the Third Reich. Many did mundane jobs at bakeries and shoe factories; others built cars for Mercedes-Benz and guns for Krupp. They were drawn - or dragged - from every corner of the Nazi empire. Whether Poles, Jews or Russians, they were deemed "sub-human" and treated accordingly. Herded into unheated barracks and forced to work 12-hour shifts on meagre rations, large numbers died of disease, hunger or maltreatment. Most of the survivors have received no compensation."

And this is the financial power behind the EU that would see fit to dictate terms to us. How short the memory, how deep the shame.

Well articulated Sir. Little wonder the left removed history from the school curriculum.

Your last sentence is worthy of a child. For the rest of your post, you make the case brilliantly for resisting nationalism and prejudice based on colour and creed. Strange therefore that you defend Tommeh.

Firstly my last sentence is bang on the money and secondly I have never defended 'Tommeh' merely his right to justice under the legal system, something you (apparently) are quite content to forgo based on the fact you don't like his views.
And third, you rant on about people insulting you but when, and it's almost always every time you post on here you provoke and encourage said abuse. You come across as a spoiled, overindulged, self important brat. Always seeking attention, always insulting in tone and giving a good impression of a small boy who lost his dummy out of the pram.

Newres is the worst kind of liberal remoaner. I really don't understand why anyone that despises the Country they live in and indeed that Countries history would want to stay in that said Country. He is I am afraid just a very sad bitter man.

I'm afraid you're right. I can understand how JSC gets so irate with him but newres persistently comes over as a very sad, frustrated and non too bright individual, which is a shame, still some one loves him I expect. Just not me.

And he's shown himself to be a racist as well.

I provoke abuse by pointing out the nonsense you post. I get that. So even though Germany was destroyed at the end of WW2, the power behind the EU stems from then

I remember a certain "celebrity" chef making the bold statement that if the UK voted to leave the EU he and his family were "off". Well he is still around and receiving a nice gratuity from HMG telling us how to feed our children so I guess he considers he will survive without minimum wage staff in his restaurants.
