Read in the Guardian today that Angela Merkel put pressure on the US and GM to support Magna's (a Canadian auto parts manufacturer) bid to take over GM's European operations, Vauxhall and Opel. She did this to protect the jobs of 20 thousand German workers .... so, it seems that most of the upcoming job cuts will be in, you guessed it, the UK.
