Concerns about the future of Vauxhall's two UK plants are growing after talks broke down in Germany over which firm will buy its parent company, GM Europe.

Two of the bidders have said they will cut thousands of jobs in Europe.

Tony Woodley, the joint general secretary for the union Unite, said the government should be involved in talks in Germany because thousands of jobs in the UK are at stake.
