From AFP News Agency.
The UK parliament passes an emergency law to stop the last British factory that can make steel from scratch shutting down, allowing the government to take control of the Chinese-owned British Steel plant. At a rare weekend session, both the Commons and Lords chambers approve the law which the government says will prevent the site’s blast furnaces going out and help save what is left of the UK’s depleted steel industry. The bill allows the government to take over the running of the Chinese-owned British Steel in Scunthorpe, which employs around 2,700 people and produces steel crucial for UK industries including construction and rail transport.
