UK to give £380m grant to Tata battery factory in Somerset Investment in plant due to supply batteries to Jaguar Land Rover expected to boost economic growth and secure jobs

Corporate Welfare.

UK Govt to give £380m grant to Tata battery factory in Somerset.

The Govt isn't taking an equity stake in return, won't receive any dividends. It isn't a loan and isn't repayable.

Political parties demonize human recipients of welfare but hand free money to corporations.

Where do these direct orders originate?

If it’s the BBC Board it’s bad enough; and there’s one set of questions to be answered.

If it’s UKGOV, there are even more questions.

Either way, defending Israel is complicity in genocide. Anyhow we watch Al Jazeera for reliable international news

Why are BBCScotlandNews and STVNews refusing to publish the statement from Calmac?

Is it because it doesn't fit in with their SNPbad agenda?

B&Q boss Thierry Garnier nails down bumper 70% pay hike The remuneration figure means Thierry Garner, pictured, has now been paid a total of £19.4m since he took on the job in September 2019.

Boss of B&Q and Screwfix gets 70% pay rise, to £3.9m. Most store staff are on low wages.

B&Q was named and shamed for not paying the minimum wage.

Govts preach pay restraint to workers, silence on exec pay, dividends, share buybacks.

Workers create wealth, but have no say in its distribution.

Deeply disappointed that the UK Labour government has blocked Ming Yang’s investment in our renewables industry - putting up to 1500 Scottish jobs at risk.

At the very moment we should be building clean energy, they are sabotaging Scotland’s industrial future.

Westminster's balancing act: cripple prosperity in Scotland which may lead to confidence in independence, whilst simultaneously continuing to extract as much oil and whisky revenue and cheap renewable energy from Scotland as possible.

I seem to remember the Tories did this in 2020. Think it was called Kick-start. Just the same policies.

Taxpayer bill for saving Scunthorpe steel furnaces could top £1.5bn by 2028, auditor says National Audit Office highlights benefits of state rescue for jobs and orders but warns of continuing high cost

Public purse support for British Steel’s Chinese-owned Scunthorpe plant could exceed £1.5bn by 2028.

Govt says it is a loan but there is no repayment schedule. It won't be repaid.

Nationalisation is the only viable future - save jobs, reindustrialise, secure supply chains.
