I agree that is good news, if it safeguards the 14,000 jobs. Because of automation I am not sure if we will gain much financially, but avoiding the job loss is very worth while.


However, it is a somewhat mixed report. I draw your attention yo two paragraphs with it:

However, the news comes as PSA announced only a couple of weeks ago that it would close down 100 Vauxhall’s showrooms – nearly a third of the total 324.


The move put more than 3,800 jobs at risk.


So retaining the existing factory jobs: very good. Little proposed increase in jobs given, but perhaps some. Depends a lot on automation. Losing 3,800 showroom jobs: bad
