What the petition asks
We want the Government to nationalise and invest in the UK Steel Industry. Producing steel in the UK has economic and strategic benefits. It supports domestic industries, creates jobs, reduces reliance on imports, and can support national security by ensuring a stable supply of a crucial material.
If the argument against is net zero, how does this tally with exporting the same process and then shipping it thousands of miles by sea?
This petition is about saving an industry that was founded in the UK, and appears to be at risk of being wiped out.
