"Madam President, I welcome the news today that Greybull Capital has bought Tata Steel’s Long Products Division, in a difficult deal brokered by local management and the unions in Scunthorpe.
It is good news for an industry in an existential crisis due to the massive dumping of cheap steel. Contrary to the Europhobes’ lies, the EU is not the cause of this crisis, but it is a crucial means for fixing it through strong trade defence measures. MEPs, the Commission and governments representing 72% of Europe's population are in favour of action, but it is our government – the British Government – which is blocking that crucial EU action.
Stronger trade defence tools could be finalised in a matter of weeks, on 13 May at the EU Trade Council, and it is up to the UK Government and David Cameron to decide if they are really willing to save our steel communities and our vital industry."@en1
