David Chadwick MP responds to last blast furnace closure at Port Talbot
30 Sep 2024
Commenting Deputy Leader of the Welsh Liberal Democrats David Chadwick MP said:
“This is a devastating day for many across South Wales, including many in my own constituency with large-scale implications for people's livelihoods, the regional economy and supply chain and national security.
“The community has been tremendously let down by the previous Conservative Government’s utter failure to provide a proper industrial strategy and by false hope offered by the incoming Labour Government.
“The focus now must be on making sure there is tangible action to replace the highly skilled jobs being lost. The Welsh Liberal Democrats will be holding both Labour and Tata’s feet to the fire to ensure promises are delivered.”
