Jingye have been acting extremely fucking dodgy throughout this entire process.

I get the whole “China bad” thing, but does anyone else feel a little nervous about the idea of the police being called in to stop the owners of a company from accessing assets of that company *when there is no allegation of illegality*?
Never mind the idea of Parliament passing an emergency law to interfere with the running of an individual company.
I understand the importance of preserving the plant, but something about how this is being done feels a little off.
If feels like if it wasn’t owned by a Chinese-based company this conversation would feel very different – if it was British-owned, or Canadian-owned or something.

The bill passed at circa 1800 today which put the steelworks under govt control.
So how could police have stopped the execs from entering this morning???

>Nigel Farage told LBC the Government should nationalise British Steel.
Here’s hoping the Starmer regime seize the moment and do something useful, given the window that has opened.

The chance of “catastrophic failure” in a critical component due to interference is a real risk going forward so would expect security to ramp up on site considerably in near future.

What are all you “commies” saying about the actual Communists now, eh?? Hilarious! Communism and socialism is evil. All collectivist philosophy is evil! It’s a reversion back to tribal society. It doesn’t work. It’s not natural. Capitalism is natural.
