Warblings from a timewarp by our one and only talking fossil!
We have no major producers any more; out-r textile industry is a dream of the long past, shipping is long gone, mining is gone, the Steel industry is gone, what remains of our car industry is based on assembling parts made abroad, the Aerospace industry is under severe threat if there is a no deal exit, the Chemical industry is not only faced with huge expenses from a 'no deal', but environmental groups have described the dangers of a huge environmental problem if Britain leaves Europe, with the rise of chemical "dumping Grounds".....   
And we are expected to swallow the words of a tabloid-level gutter-raker that "British Industry is doing well"

These are the same declines shared by all advanced western economies as demonstrated in a previous link.

Only socialism produces expensive goods that cannot be sold to export markets. All other factors being equal, production migrates to the lowest cost base. An inescapable fact of life and essential lynchpin of capitalism.
Your huge chemical dumping grounds are a figment of your imagination.
Waste disposal is tightly controlled now, and will continue to be.
You are not very good at reading links are you? Would you treat the articles with the same contempt if in the Guardian?
That you cannot accept a link to the Office of National Statistics because it is referenced to by guido is a clear measure of your own atupidity. Do all government figures have to come from the guardian in order to be accepted? What a funny littlee fellow you are!
