An update on the above:

Honda to resume UK output after problems at ports
Honda has said its British car plant will restart production on Monday after problems importing parts had halted output since Wednesday.

The Japanese company said in a statement on Sunday it had told staff at its Swindon plant "full production operations will resume in all areas".
