Leaving EU won't help
To suggest the UK would be better off out of Europe to help the ailing steel industry is contrary to facts. It assumes a willing government prepared to act, but what have we? The UK Government has only recently taken up the European relief on energy costs to industry. It reluctantly agreed a EU introduction of a tariff on Chinese steel imports but to date refuses to support a higher tariff to level the playing field. Is this a Government concerned about the future of steel?
The idea that it would swoop to assist and preserve our steel making capacity if we leave Europe is highly unlikely.
