Tim Member 142 Member For: 16y 6m 29d Posted 22/05/13 11:07 PM Share Posted 22/05/13 11:07 PM The ABC news just reported briefly that the AMWU has said that Ford is stopping production. It was only a brief report but it sounded like that production was going to stop rather suddenly. Hopefully not the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
