From 20+ petrol refineries in the 1970s to 7 now, operation Yellow Hammer expects a further 2 to close - oh joy.

I have been to the Stanlow refinery a few times. It's quite a place but a bit it's a bit worrying when the first thing they do is show you how to get to the emergency refuge bunkers.
One interesting social point - the canteen was open to all staff and visitors and was free. The owners felt that staff that were looked after preformed safer. (This was 2013 under the new ownership.)
