Support our steel industry
* Reduce energy costs to French levels to give a level playing field

* Get together with the industry to find solutions to issues

Why is this important?
* Steel is a strategic material. Without it we cannot exist on our own, supply our own industries, fight a war if the worst occurred.
* Skilled jobs are being lost, these skills may not come back and our industrial future is in peril
* Families are suffering, far better to assist the companies in the short term than pay dole to the redundant workers.
* Britain needs to look to the long term industrial future like Germany and support its industries.
