It seems rather strange that the government is bribing Tata, an Indian company, with millions to set up a battery factory in the UK, but isn't providing a penny of support to struggling AMTE Power Plc, a British company in Thurso that's working on a new battery, which uses much safer sodium to replace lithium, and sodium is readily available from seawater.
AMTE Power is allegedly days away from collapse. There again, if the government is opening new coal mines and granting North Sea Oil licences, we shouldn't really expect them to be supporting ethical batteries.

The same old story. Flog the crown jewels to foreigners then subsidise foreign competitors.
From Thatcher to BoJo a litany of corruption.
