Renegotiating Teesworks…

Please forgive me if I’m wrong, but theoretically - could an incoming Labour government or Chris McEwan renegotiate the deal and fully buy back the site so that the government fully owns it, due to taxpayers putting in £560m of investment? Seems a great piece of infrastructure that could most increase economic growth and put back into our public services or bringing the bus networks into public ownership - like Andy Burnham in Manchester and Tracy Brabin in South Yorkshire recently

I have no idea how that would work and I get the current owners may need reimbursing, but I certainly hope this gets sorted and Baron Houchen of High Leven gets the boot on May 2nd👍

Yes, I suspect there will be a big legal fight if this was to happen and we'd have to be careful about losing the very thing the area is set up to do, that's provide good high paying jobs for the people of Teesside.

This could be the plan. I hope that the message gets out that a change of mayor will bring jobs and industry rather than a giveaway

I imagine the contracts will be binding but, yeah, let's chuck another £300 or £400 million at Corney and Musgrave to get them to hand them back.
 
Compulsory purchase order. Give the con artists their money back. Every last penny plus 10% compensation.... which should roughly add up to around £0

perhaps find out if there had anything illegal had taken place. -if so , and this proven in court, confiscate the whole lot and allow the judge to pass sentence- hopefully imprisonment. or use a compulsory purchase order as said above.
But what, in my mind, as I can be a little twisted sometimes, restore the area to what it was, like that historical pub when it was burnt down in the Midlands.
Either way, we want our property back
 
Yeah lets pay for it twice and give more money to the Chunts... this time at an inflated price considering more tax payer cash was used to clear the land to make it prime real estate with contract pending on it.


Sticks in my throat but it just needs to happen int he quickest possible way now to get jobs on the ground. Doing something like the above would take years and kill off any potential work lined up.

Would be nice but they would demand £££££ in lost earnings. Houtchen has either been stitched up like a kipper or is corrupt to the core.
