This has made us realise how vunerable the manufacturing industry is in the U.K.especially the North East and how helpless we are to prevent it without the Governments help. It's not a very nice feeling to be going home today to tell my wife & family that i won't have job possibly by the middle of next year. The question i would like to ask is why the Government chooses to turn a blind eye to the problem and are leaving us reps feeling helpless and with not a lot of answers.<BR/><BR/>John F.
