Sarah Champion MP Statement on Restructuring of Liberty Steel

“Until we can scrutinise the details of the restructure at the various Liberty South Yorkshire plants, it is difficult to be anything other than nervous.’

‘My thoughts are with the workers and their families at this hugely stressful time. I know they have done all they can over the last decade to accommodate the changing global market, ownership and government priorities. Now is not the time for Liberty to repay that loyalty by cutting highly skilled workers from a strategic industry that we need more than ever.’

‘I will do all I can to make sure Liberty do right by their staff to both minimise the impact of change and make sure as many as possible remain employed.”
