PA mediaThe United Kingdom government is trying to take control or British steel of Chinese property in emergency legislation that hastened parliament in a single day.
Business Secretary Jonathan Reynolds told parliamentarians that the next passage of the government would be to nationalize the Scunthorpe plant, which employs 2,700 people.
But he said he was forced to look for an appearance to prevent the owners from Jingye to spend their two underpants, which would have finished the production of primary steel in the United Kingdom.
Parliamentarians and colleagues have called the leg of their Easter holidays to vote through legislation in a strange Saturday session of both Chambers of Parliament.
The bill is not being resisted by opposition parties, but conservatives said the government should have acted before and have made “a total pork breakfast of this whole package.”
He has cleared all his common obstacles and is now debated in the House of Lords, and Royal Assenent is expected to be later.
The legislation will deliver to the Barrabs of Reynolds to control management and workers in the plant to ensure that the production continues, including the entry by force, if necessary, to ensure the assets.
But Jingye will keep the property or for now.
The Government has the hope that a private investment can ensure to save the losses manufacturing plant, but the ministers admit that there are currently no companies willing to make an offer.
In the common ones, Reynolds acknowledged that public property was “the probable option.”
He said that he had forced the leg to take care of the plant’s operation because Jingye, who bought the British steel in 2020, had rejected the government’s sacrifices to buy raw materials to keep the underfrews in operation.
“Although our sacrifice for Jingye to be substantial, they wanted much more. Frankly, an excessive amount. We did at the beginning that we continued committed to negotiation.
“But in recent days, it was clear that Jingye’s intention was to refuse to buy enough raw material to keep the blacles in operation, in fact, his intention was to cancel and refuse to pay existing orders.
“Therefore, the company would have irrevocate and unilaterally closing primary steel in British steel.”
The Vice President of Reform of the United Kingdom, Richard Tice, urged the government to “show their balls” and go further through the nationalization of British Steel “this weekend.”
Several conservative parliamentarians also spoke in favor of nationalization, while the spokeswoman for the Liberal Democratic Treasury, Daisy Cooper, said that remembering the Parliament had “absolutely right” bone.
Former Labor leader Jeremy Corbyn, now an independent deputy, urged the government to nationalize all steel in the United Kingdom.
The green deputy Ellie Chowns said that steel is an integral part of “green industrial transformation”, including the manufacture of wind turbines, trains and tracks, and nationalization would give the United Kingdom the control it needs to renew the industry.
The government was criticized for acting to save the Scunthorpe plant, but not take the same action when Tata Steel’s works in Port Talbot threatened to close.
Westminster Lizster Liz Saville Robert by Plaid Cymru said it was a “bitter day for the people of Port Talbot”, since he urged the government to change the legislation to take control of what remains of the carpentry there.
The Westminster leader of the SNP, Stephen Flynn, asked why the legislation only applies to England, when a Scottish oil refinery faces the closure.
“Why don’t this bee extend to Scotland? Why is Grangemouth not included?” He asked Reynolds, adding that the United Kingdom government “was not interested in Scotland.”
Reynolds said Grangemouth “was not comparable” with the situation in Scunthorpe, who said it was “unique.”
“The question for all members is that we, as a country, want to have a steel industry, do we want to make the construction of steel and rail that we need here in the United Kingdom, or we want to be a vagantes in imports abroad?” Hello parliamentarians.
