HUNDREDS of steelworkers from across Britain will descend on Brussels on Monday as part of a Europe-wide demonstration against the EU’s failure to protect the beleaguered industry.

Members of the Community, GMB and Unite unions will take part in the protest outside the European Parliament demanding that tougher action is taken to save the steel industry.

Britain’s Tory government’s complete refusal to act has led to thousands of jobs going across northern England, Wales and Scotland.
