Scuttling British Shipbuilders (1991x17)

Uitzenddatum: Mei 20, 1991

Two years ago England's last big merchant shipbuilding yard was closed for good. But there were and remain shipbuilders who wanted to buy and run the Sunderland shipyards without subsidy. Fred Emery reports on the political deal between Whitehall and Brussels which sacrificed Sunderland in the Government's rush to privatise what was left of British shipbuilding.
