Geoffrey Robinson does he back saving Jaguar?

As a Coventry MP and ex Chief Exec of Jag, Geoffrey should be fairly knowledgeable on this subject.

He is also known to have been a backer of Brown (especially financially) for many many years. He certainly has the ear of the PM.

Robinson has joined the "Back the Jag" campaign with the Coventry Telegraph. This is asking for Government support.

However LA has discovered an interview on the Today program made on November 19th last year where this Coventry MP in a debate with SMMT says that the UK automotive company should not receive government assistance!!

He is adamant that as most manufacturers in the UK are foreign owned and they should sort themselves out.

If such an influential MP as Robinson is saying one thing on one day, and another the next,is it any wonder we are getting no decision or guidance.

It is also one of the greatest U turns and pieces of cynical politicking LA has ever witnessed. LA wonders if his constituents are aware.
