  1. BBC from 2019:

    Business Minister Andrea Leadsom said she had met with Jingye's chairman on Monday.

    "I have been given reassurances that next to all current staff will be kept and that in the medium to longer term they are likely to want to expand the workforce" she said.

    The deal will give the Chinese company control of a third of the UK's steel industry. But Ms Leadsom said: "There aren't any national security issues with this acquisition."

  10. In #PortTalbot wurden 2024 die zwei Hochöfen zur Eisenproduktion von #Tata stillgelegt. Sie sollen später durch Lichtbogenöfen ersetzt werden, um Schrott wieder einzuschmelzen.
    Damit verbleiben in #UK noch die beiden Hochöfen in #Scunthorpe von #BritishSteel, die auch bald stillgelegt und möglicherweise durch Lichtbogenöfen ersetzt werden sollen.
    In #Teesside könnte auch ein Lichtbogenofen gebaut werden.

  11. So Port Talbot steelworks to close. That means no blast furnaces to smelt iron by reduction with coke in the UK. Now, when the Tories proposed the Woodhouse coal mine in Cumbria, it was to produce coking coal. With no demand for coke in the UK, who's going to buy any coal that the mine produces? Am I the only person to have noticed this?
