Lewis Goodall hosts a special report from Port Talbot, South Wales, where thousands of jobs are about to be lost at Tata Steel.Port Talbot is Britain's last great steelworks, and a community has been built around it for generations. But Tata has announced 2,800 job losses across the UK as part of the closure of the site's blast furnaces and a transition to greener steelmaking.We visited the site and the town itself, to assess the impact it could have on an economy already battered by the de-industrialisation of the 1980s.Editor: Tom HughesField Producer: Rory Symon Senior Producer: Gabriel Radus Producer: Alex BarnettSocial Media Editor: Georgia FoxwellYou can listen to this episode on Alexa - just say "Alexa, ask Global Player to play The News Agents"!The News Agents is brought to you by HSBC UK - https://www.hsbc.co.uk/EXCLUSIVE NordVPN Deal -> https://nordvpn.com/thenewsagents Try it risk-free now with a 30-day money-back guaranteehttps://store.global.com/collections/the-news-agents
