Ta-Ta, Steel

The Conservative Party's token filly for business, Anna Soubry, has pledged that the Government is determined that steel will continue to be made at Port Talbot, despite the incompetence of Vince Cable and the machinations of the Heathen Chinee. Well, of course, since the structural deficit was eliminated by 2015 without any disruptive top-down reorganisations being imposed on the NHS, we all know what the Government's pledges are worth. Workers in Britain's steel industry may now rest assured that their living is about as safe as market forces and the whims of the Bullingdon Club allow it to be.
