Interesting that little mill has had over £550k in government funding recently (+ at least £80k in loans from the local authority). No surprise Scotland voted Remain.

The article doesn't explain why the mill is having the issues. Boom in demand of the last decade and substantial bailouts. Is the issue mismanagement, employee productivity problems, profit margins too low or some other reason. Would be interesting to know what the problem is.
