He actually didn't do that - and she didn't blame Brexit either; she did however, when asked, say that No Deal would be absolutely catastrophic for them - and intimated that if that happened, they'd have to carefully consider investments in the UK in future. She also said that the company had already spent tens of millions of Euros preparing for that eventuality, primarily in stockpiling parts.
Meanwhile, despite the Brexiteers apparent indifference to job losses, you'll be pleased to know that her assessment was that even in the worst case scenario, job losses would be many years down the line due to the size of their order book.
It was actually a very measured and informative discussion - made a nice change.
