Rover revelations
Details of behind-the-scenes talks that led the BMW car company to sell
Rover to the union-backed Phoenix consortium, rather than rival Alchemy,
have been revealed by Manfred Schoch, trade unionist chair of the BMW
European Works Council.
He told Die Mitbestimmung that the breakthrough - giving Phoenix the
same financial support as had been offered to Alchemy - came immediately
after a meeting between Schoch, BMW chair Professor Milberg and British
union officials.
