Britain's second biggest steel maker collapsed on Wednesday, putting 4,500 jobs at the company at risk, and threatening another 20,000 at suppliers. The company was seeking a government bailout, but talks ended without agreement. British Steel was reportedly seeking a government loan of £75 million ($95 million) to cover losses it said it suffered because European orders had evaporated due to the uncertainty surrounding Brexit.
