The UK Government has been accused of "playing Russian roulette" with jobs, after Jaguar Land Rover, Airbus and BMW said they urgently needed certainty on Brexit. Rebecca Long Bailey of the Unite union said tens of thousands of jobs, which the UK would need more than ever without the EU, were at risk. “Our jobs are not yours to play Russian roulette with”, he said. Shadow business secretary Len McClusky said if the Government could not provide urgent assurances to the UK’s biggest export market, thousands of Jaguar Land Rover and “countless” supply chain jobs would be lost.
