Even so called top names buy from eastern sweatshops look how M&S got caught out as well many so called football shirts companies now days CE dont mean made in Europe but Chinese Exports. even well known car spares still have the original trade name and logo on the box but are made in China so they can make huge profits without the expense of manufacturing at home.

Don't worry, those currently at the top have a plan......
When they've finished "creating" all of these new jobs...and were all on zero hours contracts and have p*ss all employment rights , I dare say manufacturers will come flooding back...

Don't think it ever meant "Made in Europe", I always assumed it stood for "Conformité Européenne" ie complying with European safety etc regulations.
Correct as stated.
