    Good news.
    Except where does their rates get paid to?
    I would much prefer this built at Junction 36 M1.

    Aren't they also building some sort of theme park in Rotherham. That will offer hundreds of jobs just in construction alone.

    This has been in the offing for 25 years.

    Though its painted as a "good news" story, the initial job creation expectation was an initial phase of 200 with hope for up to 100 more.

    30 is a very token amount, and I suspect theres been huge concessions to finally bring them to the region.

    The fall in the value of the £ against the $ makes it significantly better value at this time too.
