“Looking ahead they have a long-term commitment to their investment here and see the UK as a great place to do business.”
Mrs Ansell said she also spoke to IKEA’s UK boss Peter Jelkeby.
The MP added: “If Eastbourne comes out of the draw there is £1,000 for a charity in Eastbourne. Who to nominate?”
