Since the cyber attack on Jaguar Land rover a few weeks ago they have had to close production. This in turn has had a knock on effect on those companies that supply spares to JLR and they in turn have been laying people off.
I'm all for the Government stepping in to help pay wages whilst it is sorted {it was done during covid on a much bigger scale} but one thing I don't agree with is the idea going round Parliament at the moment is for the Government to keep these spares companies going by BUYING all the JLR spares using our money and hanging on to them till JLR are back up and running and selling to JLR, this is a recipe for disaster.
If I were JLR and this happened I would turn round to the government and say we don't want what you've got. we would then start again with our suppliers on a new, more favourable contract to us, we will only buy the government's stock at a VASTLY reduced price.
