[QUOTE="DrDunc, post: 3490690, member: 615"] France pumped a €7 billion rescue package into PSA Peugeot in late 2012/2013. I've no knowledge of how this was squared away with EU rules. Ten years before that the UK government let the Phoenix group asset strip the remnants of the British car industry, and helped them sell it off to the Chinese. John Towers, Peter Beale, Nick Stephenson and John Edwards of the Phoenix group were allowed to steel the livelihoods and pensions of thousands of people. It fills me with disgust just how little the Westminster government values primary production and manufacturing in this country. Peugeot is a success story that shows how badly British steel, coal, and car workers were regarded. I seriously hope Westminster will break with their tradition of allowing the sale or closure of British industries, and post Brexit that they emulate France. Perhaps we need to start rumours in the press that Westminster will be supporting agriculture? :whistle: [/QUOTE]
