Shadow Chancellor Meets Steelworkers From The Recently Mothballed SSI Site

REDCAR, ENGLAND - OCTOBER 05: A general view of Redcar high street ahead of a visit by the Labour Shadow Chancellor John McDonnell for a meeting with steelworkers and their families, trade union officials and local MPs on October 5, 2015 in Redcar, England. Following the recent announcement that the SSI UK steel plant in Redcar will go into liquidation with the loss of 1700 jobs, the Shadow Chancellor is visiting the area to show support for the Save Our Steel campaign. Last week the government announced a £80 million package to support those affected, but have ruled out state intervention to keep the plant open. (Photo by Ian Forsyth/Getty Images)
