SIR: I see that the land swap deal between Tesco and Fort James has been held up yet again. Why is the Government threatening jobs again? They keep saying they are the party of employment. But this move threatens jobs at both of these firms. MP Ruth Kelly says she's fighting to save these jobs, yet it's the Labour party who's created this situation. Both companies have been in Horwich many years, so it's about time the Labour Party got their act together. Let's save jobs and cut red tape for a change. S Rock,
Vice-Chairman,
Horwich Liberal Democrats.
