More bad news for the UK economy as a whole, and car manufacturers more generally, with Ford cutting a fifth of its UK workforce at an R&D site in Essex.
Given other rumblings, most notably from Nissan, is this the death knell for the industry in the sector? You would hope not, but the sector looks pretty beleaguered and the fact that it's in R&S implies that we might be losing our competitiveness in the newest, possibly electric, models.
