No idea of the Costs, yet.

Sarah Jones Labour MP
confirmed they had no choice
As the China Owner wasn't buying coal supplies.
Trying to close it down.

1982 was the last time this happened.



But still, the Coal is bought from Japan
or other nations
which is stupid, as the UK still has Coal in the ground

Report it right arista, the government has stated clearly all is on the table even nationalisation in the future if it's necessary.

Personally I'd like to see it nationalised ' and' THAT IS being looked at by the government.
Unbelievably for once I do agree with Richard Tice and Reform that it should just be nationalised now.

However I also understand the government's still caution as to that.
Securing everything short term now is extremely important with the longer term plans really thought out over a little more time.
There's nothing really stupid about doing that.

it's not british steel, it's chinese steel. I understand in these times we need a steel industry for our security, so boot out the chinese and take it over and use it to support our military into the future

BREAKING - While attention was understandably focussed on British Steel yesterday, a
daily record of 623 small boat migrants crossed illegally from France. The highest daily
total had been 592 on 3rd March. Dover lifeboat was called to assist Border Force respond
to multiple calls.

Some Reports today
are saying the importing of the coal
may not get there in time.

The Fire may still go out?

So Dragging Parliament back on a Saturday
was far too late

The mind boggles, why the UK is importing coal with all the associated costs involved in getting here both financial and environmental when it has its own resources
