The British Steel saga has ended our love affair with Chinese money

After an emergency Saturday sitting of parliament, British Steel’s Scunthorpe plant is now - to all intents and purposes - under government control.The Chinese owners Jingye were intending to shut down the site, with the potential loss of almost 3,000 jobs and an end to 160 years of steelmaking in the town, but under emergency legislation a new CEO has been appointed and the company will report directly to the government - with the race now on to secure the raw materials to stop the furnaces at the plant shutting down.With Nigel Farage accusing China of deliberately sabotaging the plant, Kamal Ahmed and Tim Stanley ask Reform's candidate for Mayor of Lincolnshire - Dame Andrea Jenykns - whether the party believes that China should be removed from key UK infrastructure projects.Plus, Kamal and Tim grill each other on how privileged they are, after details emerged in The Daily Telegraph of Westminster Council's internal test for staff as part of its efforts to combat unconscious bias against ethnic minorities.Read:How posh are you really?
