“First, my thoughts are, and the thoughts of all honourable Members will be, with British Steel workers and their families, following the company’s announcement of plans to close the blast furnaces and other steelmaking assets at Scunthorpe, and its commercial decision to consult on redundancies. This is not what we wanted, and I know how worrying it will be for all those involved. I am grateful to my honourable friend the Member for Scunthorpe, Sir Nicholas Dakin, who is in his constituency today engaging directly with his local community.
