There is little question that Politics reared it's ugly head in the case of The DeLorean. General Motors, I am convinced, after seeing the success of the "D" especially at many of it's own Dealerships, convinced the English Gov't to pull the plug. I suspect the "Falklands War" even had an influence on why the English government did what they did. In my humble opinon what JZD did to help stop the "Troubles" in Northern Ireland, Create Jobs among both sides equally, he should have been nominated for sainthood. Jobs, Good jobs, everywhere is the beginning of the answer!!!! Mike (by the by I hold dual Citizenship with the ROI)
