Due to the actions of this government, the challenges facing those with disabilities, such as spinal cord injuries, are nigh on insurmountable, argus RUTH HUNT
THE crisis at Alstom train building in Derby, the essential centre of the whole industry in Britain, is now nearing its climax — which looks likely to result in its closure, the loss of 17,000 jobs in the works and the supply chain, and the end of Britain’s 170-year-old industry.

Unite’s emergency resolution to Midlands TUC AGM conference in Derby today says: “This conference calls on the TUC and the Midlands TUC to campaign to secure the last fully integrated train manufacturing site in the UK. The facility is on the brink of closure due to government inaction.
