Unite general secretary Sharon Graham is marching with steel members tomorrow (Wednesday 27 June) in Westminster to warn MPs and ministers that the time for talking is over and immediate action is required by the government to secure the long-term future of the UK’s steel industry.

From hospitals to defence, it is clear that UK steel is a critical infrastructure industry and steel must be produced in the UK.

We can no longer leave ourselves vulnerable. The government must act now and Labour must show clear intent.

Sharon Graham will be marching to Westminster with steel workers and meeting MPs to call for urgent action to preserve jobs and ensure the future of the UK’s steel industry.

Following the march, Sharon Graham will be available for interview.

When: Wednesday 28 June 11:30

Where: Parliament Square, Westminster, London, SW1A 0AA
