Jaguar Land Rover: Redundancies

Contribution

I welcome the hon. Gentleman’s question. He knows that we are reviewing the ZEV mandate. The destination of electric remains, but the question of how quickly we go there is under review. He stands there as the supposed defender of Jaguar Land Rover, but I simply remind him that when we stepped in with £1.5 billion to protect Jaguar Land Rover, his party leader said: “I predict Jaguar will now go bust. And you know what? They deserve to”. The hon. Gentleman should apologise for that.
