Report: The end of British steel?

  • Summary

  • British Steel has been warning for several days that the raw materials needed to keep its plant's two blast furnaces operational are running out.


    The Chinese-owned company says the business is no longer sustainable, and are willing to let the factory cease operations - at the cost of 2,700 jobs.


    Labour have 24 hours to buy in new products and make a bid to nationalise the plant.


    Will they do it?
