Britain | Steel yourselves
The fight over one of Britain’s last steel plants
Closing two blast furnaces in south Wales will cut emissions and jobs
IT FELL TO Terry Leyshon to make the final push. On March 20th he moved the last batch of coke from the oven onto a waiting railcar, ready to head to the blast furnace. Mr Leyshon has worked at the Port Talbot steelworks in south Wales since he was a teenager. Steel runs in his blood: it was his father who made the first push when the site opened in 1981.
