Unite's reaction to job cuts at BAE systems

30 April 2009

Unite's national officer, Bernie Hamilton, said: "We are extremely disappointed, this announcement impacts the UK's ability to build and design the next generation armoured vehicles (FRES) and other equipment.

"The government must now make the right and speedy decision on the new scout vehicles, which must be designed, built and maintained in the UK by UK workers, to help underpin what remains of the UK capability and business."
