Vince Cable
BUSINESS Secretary Vince Cable is visiting south Essex today to hear how thousands of new jobs are being created at a deep sea port and logistics park.
Dr Cable will visit the London Gateway site at Corringham which will have created 700 new jobs by the end of the year and 36,000 when the project is completed.
The port will be able to handle the world's largest cargo ships up to 400 metres long.
