I'm appalled at the government - I would never give out corporate welfare. If Rover isn't profitable, which considering the continual crises its in, it probably isn't, then it deserves to hit the can. There's no good trying to stop the inevitable, you never will: The market will take care of Rover and send it on its way to history.

As for the unemployed - the government should do what it can to help those made redundant, whether through retraining or trying to bring new investment into the area, but it shouldn't continually prop up an ailing company.

Whats even more appalling is that its clearly been done with electoral motives in mind because of the close seats in the areas around the plant.
