re: 1300 Bombardier (UKs last Railway stock producer) jobs being lost

Maybe the UK should be a little bit more like France and be a bit more protective about domestic industries ,one example , seem to remember that France has a law that says a minimum of 60% of all tv programs aired have to be produced in France as a way of protecting French jobs.
Also a fact , when Rupert Murdoch moved into the US media market he was required to have US citizenship before he was allowed ownership of any media (newspapers and TV stations) .
The idea that any 'key' industry can be foreign controlled is totally wrong, examples are power, water, steel, telecoms,transport , leads to a loss of national sovereignty
