Sarah Jones

Labour — Croydon West

Speaking in the House of Commons on 7 April 2025

Debate

Scunthorpe Steelworks

Contribution

British Steel is a private company owned by Jingye, and it is for Jingye to make its own decisions. I have said multiple times that we will continue to talk to see if we can come to an agreement on the very generous offer that was made. We are looking at all options, because we know that is the right thing to do. To be clear, we do not want the blast furnaces to close, and we want to come to an agreement.
