Yet again, co-leader of the Green Party, Adrian Ramsay, talks a lot of sense...

"We cannot afford to let our steel industry in Scunthorpe go into smelt down. With Chinese owner Jingye prepared to walk away and the steel industry facing Trump’s outlandish 25% tariff, nationalisation looks like the only sure way to secure this strategically important sector so vital to national security and British jobs. The fact the government is considering this long-held policy of the Green party is welcome.

Nationalisation of the steel industry could also prove to be a key driver of a green industrial revolution. From wind turbines to trains, steel will be needed for the transition to a green economy. We must not leave the future of steel communities to the whims of multinational companies or unhinged American presidents."
