Steelworkers lobby Parliament to end unfair world competition

Reps from steelworkers’ unions Community, GMB and Unite lobbied their MPs on behalf of workers at the Port Talbot, Llanwern, Teesside, Scunthorpe and Corby sites.
They then attended a Labour-called Commons debate at which opposition frontbenchers demanded tougher regulations from Westminster and the EU.
