Ex-Tata workers 'frustrated' by Scunthorpe takeover

Former workers at Tata Steel have said they are "frustrated" over the UK government's decision to take control of Scunthorpe steelworks.

MPs rushed emergency legislation through UK Parliament on Saturday to allow officials to take control of the plant run by Chinese-owned British Steel and prevent its two blast furnaces from shutting down.

Welsh politicians have questioned why the government failed to do the same for Tata Steel in Port Talbot, while the Welsh Conservatives requested a Senedd recall during Easter recess to discuss the situation.

UK ministers said the two steelworks were in different situations, and that Port Talbot was in a better position because of the Labour government.
