100,000 call on MPs to step up now
Steel petition blasts through threshold for debate in Parliament in under a day

SUPPORT for Jeremy Corbyn’s petition calling for an immediate recall of Parliament soared past the 100,000 mark yesterday amid a clamour for action over the steel crisis.

The Labour leader launched the official online petition after Tata Steel announced its plan to flog off its British operations on Wednesday.
