Did the business secretary really do all that was necessary to put the case for Vauxhall? Undecided

I would have thought that he should have been in Berlin to get the feel for the meeting rather than depend on telephone calls to garner some assurance that the local plant would remain safe. Roll Eyes

I noticed in the latter part of the interview that he stressed change would be evident as a result of any potential deal done, and that change could also be necessary as a result of excess capacity. I rather read that as job losses. Undecided

Hardly inspiring stuff from a senior official Wink

Having known him from his SOS NI days Martin he is indeed a slippery customer.

He's only here presently because our Dear Leader Roll Eyes

is clueless and bankrupt of any form of sensible idea.

Do you know Martin, when I think of it, they've destroyed the bloody country and have been handsomely rewarded for it Angry
