The Prime Minister met the Siders of Lincolnshire shortly after the hearing in the House of Commons
There was a time when everything they could do was to wait.
Government representatives were locked in a first inn at the bottom of the British Steel steelworks road to Scanthorpe and the work of the parliament to change the law to allow them to take control of the Chinese company was finished.
But they couldn’t move yet.
Everything they could do – with all politicians 200 miles in the south in Westminster – was to wait.
They awaited the royal assent, the formality in the legislative process when the king officially agrees to make a bill an act of the parliament, and therefore the law.
Not that it is the pace of the snail, far from it.
It was a legislative sprint, the calendar of the first reading with the royal consent measured in hours, not the months he would normally take.
This moment of royal consent occurred around 6:00 p.m. on Saturday evening and, with this, these officials could go to the factory.
The legislation after the emergency was precipitated by Parliament in a single day.
There were concerns in the government concerning the prospect of disorders.
About 40% of the workforce, there are Chinese, 60% are British.
Many Chinese staff have worked for the parent company of British Steel, Jingye, all their professional lives.
Some have parents or grandparents who have also worked for the company.
Most leave now.
A new management structure has been implemented, the professional service company EY having been hired by the government to help.
There is optimism among ministers that with the modified law, they can secure the raw materials necessary to maintain the two high work stoves in Scanthorpe by doing exactly this – in office.

Jingye sought to sell to other raw materials already on the way to Lincolnshire, which convinced the government that he had to act and act quickly.
Others, especially the conservatives, wonder if it really should be if at the last minute and if some of these problems could have been planned much earlier.
And some within the industry say that the time of danger has not yet passed.
Securing the materials necessary to maintain the operational high stoves is not like ordering something online by click and collecting – these are very complex international supply chains with longtime offsets and at a time of exchange of disorders with the prices of President Trump.
And remember that all of this, for the whole Westminster drama for a weekend, is just a stoppage.
The nationalization, the government fully taking ownership of British Steel, seems more and more likely.

Affairs Secretary Jonathan Reynolds recognized in the municipalities that public property was “the probable option”
If Chinese parent society did not chica with this desire, if that happens, it could occur without other legislation.
But if they did, another new law would be necessary.
The Prime Minister has described to direct what he claims to be a “government of industry”.
He sent an email to the supporters of the Labor Party on Saturday evening about the new law, and the object line was “British Steel. British Jobs”.
Another case study, believes that some who know the spirit of the Prime Minister, of an instinct for an economic nativism ribbon.
An intervention by the muscular government at a time dominated by the principal principle of President Trump of “America First”.
There are large questions and large figures attached to this path – and therefore potentially as important budgetary implications on the track.
These officials of Scanthorpe will no longer have to hang out in their hotel rooms.
But they have a lot to do.
