Proud of the role I played in the campaign to get Hitachi #BackonTrack. This is why journalism matters. Result! https://t.co/3vMJWKijLR

The promise to help save Hitachi was made repeatedly - by Keir Starmer, Louise Haigh and Rachel Reeves - during visits to the Aycliffe plant. The Echo is tonight urging the Prime Minister to live up to that pledge

@kayleighbfraser @mikehughes Tonight's @TheNorthernEcho comment If Hitachi can be saved with the stroke of a pen, has the Government run out of ink? Whatever the reasons, Prime Minister, you made Northern Echo readers a promise on Hitachi. Please stick to it. Do not let us down. https://t.co/2Gw9wyhD3V
