So many steel workers in Port Talbot are about to lose their jobs because of the actions of the government in paying half a billion pounds of our money to Tata Steel to close down our blast furnaces - making the UK the only G7 country not to have its own capacity for the production of virgin steel.

"Port Talbot voted for Brexit. Looks like they've found another Brexit “benefit”. Hope they enjoy riding their unicorns!

I mean, once Port Talbot won the Brexit vote, they helped to turn the UK over to the liars, incompetents and the corrupt. The people of Port Talbot are reaping what they voted for, an uncaring bunch of idiots who are currently inventing a law to declare Rwanda a safe country in a pointless attempt to ship up to 200 migrants there at a cost of £390 million. Imagine what Port Talbot could have done with the same money"
