    More than 1,000 jobs are to go at Tata Steel plants, mostly in south Wales.

    Tata said 750 jobs would go in Port Talbot, while 200 support staff elsewhere would be axed.

    Other job losses would include 15 at Trostre, Llanelli along with jobs going at Hartlepool in north east England and at Corby, Northamptonshire.

    Perhaps if Tata was a British company things might be different but being an Indian-owned company makes me wonder if they care at all.

    Just because steel is cheaper to buy from China as apposed to British steel, it does not mean it makes economic sense to shut steelworks in Britain?

    In fact, buying dearer steel from Port Talbot would probably be cheaper in real terms for Britain.
