Misleading Brexit reference

The Restoration section includes the claim that Burberry abandoned its plans for the mill "following the Brexit vote". This is true only in the chronological sense. According to the 2017 citation provided [18], Burberry said they were still committed to finding a suitable site in Leeds. In 2019 Burberry changed its plans again, prompting more articles that attempted to link their decision to Brexit, such as this one in the Guardian, subheaded: "Company’s enthusiasm for building new manufacturing site waned after Brexit vote". https://www.theguardian.com/business/2019/may/04/burberry-scraps-plans-to-build-factory-in-leeds But the article goes on to make clear that Burberry's decision was unrelated to Brexit: "The company insisted its decision was not related to Brexit. On Friday, Burberry’s chief operating and financial officer, Julie Brown, said: “We can confirm that we have decided to sell the land we own in central Leeds. After a detailed review, we concluded that the site is not suitable to support our plans.” "Brown said the brand, which is due to report its annual results later this month, remained “committed to Yorkshire and the UK”. She added: “As part of this, we will continue to invest in our existing manufacturing operations in Castleford and Keighley, home to our iconic Burberry Heritage trenchcoat. We will also continue to grow our shared services centre in Leeds, which opened in 2017.”" 94.196.85.81 (talk) 08:50, 12 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
