British Steel losses reach £1.3 million a day
Britain is losing £1.3 million each day on the nationalised British Steel works, according to the Financial Times. MPs criticised the absence of a credible plan while ministers consider another intervention in the sector. The available RSS material does not specify how long the daily losses have persisted or what options the government is weighing.
Why it matters
Mounting operating losses increase the cost to taxpayers and the urgency of deciding the steelmaker's long-term ownership and industrial role.
