He also criticized the government’s role and the high cost of the investigation.
“They (Phoenix Group) came with good intentions, but what really bothers me about the report, is to participate in government,” he added.

“We want long term jobs, rather than short-term disorder.”
The negative consequences of the collapse of the local environment, once a bustling factory in south Birmingham and it was necessary to view the supply chain, even after four years, former workers claim.
More than 6,000 people worked there, but the implications go much further, “said Professor Chinn.
“There are a number of people who can not harm Mr. Rover, and people who are still angry with dismay – as I – concerned and outraged that we do not invest in the work,” he said.
One former employee, Andy Cartwright, who worked on the Rover 16 years, wrote the history and traditions surrounding the Rover brand have been synonymous with Birmingham.

“It’s like Cadbury Bournville – it would it?”
