Scrapping of £2.5bn shipbuilding project would be 'catastrophic', warns SNP
15.01.2023 - 18:29 / dailyrecord.co.uk
The cancelling of a multi-billion pound shipbuilding order would be "catastrophic" and put thousands of Scottish jobs at risk, the SNP has warned. The £2.5billion plan to build five new Type 32 frigates at Rosyth shipyard could be cancelled as Chancellor Jeremy Hunt plans to divert funding elsewhere, according to the Sunday Times.
The order to make Britain "the foremost naval power in Europe" was announced two years ago by then Prime Minister Boris Johnson. Work on the frigates is supposed to begin in 2028. The project was to employ more than 1,200 staff and help retain thousands of jobs in the supply chain.
But they could be dropped in this spring's defence review. Current work on Type 26 frigates at BAE Systems Clyde yards and Type 31 frigates at Babcock's Rosyth yards will start to wind down in the second half of this decade.
This has led to fears that Scotland's shipbuilding industry could be hit with widespread job losses if the Type 32 frigates do not go ahead. The SNP have said that it would be a "betrayal" if the project did not go ahead.
SNP Defence spokesperson Dave Doogan said: "The Ministry of Defence (MoD) habitually vires money from one budget allocation to shore up another more immediate overspend, only to subsequently reflate the donor budget at a later date. It’s a dysfunctional way of accounting but they seem wedded to it.
"I very much hope that is what the Admiralty are doing with Type 32 because cancelling this work would be catastrophic in operational terms for the Royal Navy and in industrial strategy terms for Rosyth, the wider supply chain and shipbuilding in general.
"If the Prime Minister cancels Type 32 it would represent a gross betrayal of Scotland and of industry partners, principally Babcock, who

‘Decision To Leave’ Director Park Chan-Wook Explains How Less Is Much More When It Comes To Creating Tension: “That’s The Purest Form Of Cinema”
Bong Joon-ho may be the national hero for bringing home the Oscar for Parasite, but it was Park Chan-wook who first blazed the trail for Korean cinema. After two false starts, his international career began in earnest in 2000 with Berlinale hit Joint Security Area (J.S.A), a military thriller set in the no-man’s land between North and South Korea. In the years since, Director Park has been a quicksilver talent, never repeating himself and bringing savagely original twists to genres as diverse as the vampire movie (Thirst), the erotic thriller (Handmaiden) and manga (Oldboy). His latest, Decision to Leave, is no exception, a perversely modern and yet classically Hitchcockian whodunnit, in which Park Hae-il’s obsessive detective Hae-joon falls hard for his suspect (Tang Wei).
