In my opinion, it makes Gideon look an even bigger t!t than he already is, going to China and encouraging the very same steel industry that is flooding the market, to bid for UK contracts - when UK steel, is coming to a juddering halt.
One of the reasons UK steel is floundering? The Chinese steel industry...
The last government did nowt. Lets hope this one does a little bit more.
