觀點英國經濟

The British government must not sacrifice Tata to dogma
英國政府不應拘泥於意識形態教條


英國前商務大臣凱布爾:儘管保守黨基於意識形態反對行業干預,減赤計劃也限制了政府支出,但不採取行動挽救英國鋼鐵業,將帶來高昂的代價。

The decision by Tata’s board to sell off its British steel business is a nightmare for the UK government. The Conservatives are ideologically hostile to industrial intervention, as the business secretary Sajid Javid has made clear. The priority that George Osborne, the chancellor, accords to deficit reduction places severe constraints on spending. Yet the likelihood is that without substantial intervention and spending, basic steelmaking will disappear from the UK.

對英國政府來說,塔塔(Tata)董事會出售旗下英國鋼鐵業務的決定是個噩夢。就如商業大臣薩吉德•賈偉德(Sajid Javid)已經清楚表明的,保守黨在意識形態上反對行業干預。財相喬治•奧斯本(George Osborne)將削減赤字作爲優先事項,這使支出嚴重受限。然而如果沒有實質性的干預和支出,基礎鋼鐵製造可能會從英國消失。
