A secure, long-term future for our steelworks is not just essential for Scunthorpe, but for the country. It is not uncommon for Ministers and colleagues to refer to me as the 'steel lady', as they know what my priorities in Westminster are!
As soon as the new Minister for Steel was appointed, I made sure to get in touch and let him know how important this is to our area. He’ll continue to hear from me a lot!
So I was delighted earlier this week, that he made it a priority to visit British Steel.
