Tony Blair pissed about Jag plant closing, threatens to flick Ford in the ear

And he's not scared to let his feelings show. PM Blair has planned a meeting with Ford execs to, um, "talk over" the estimated 1150 jobs lost because of the Browns Lane shutdown. Browns Lane was chiefly responsible for output of the XJ sedan, production of which will be now be undertaken at the Castle Bromwich plant, a move that is projected to save Ford $180 million a year. Oh, so that's why the closed the plant. It was because of money, that evil green papery substance. I only hope Tony's irregular heart can handle the brutal diatribe he's about to unleash.
