national report(weastar times/bbc):::The 63-year-old is one of nearly 100 staff who was told last week that he had lost his job at Coventry taxi manufacturer LTI's factory after the firm's parent company Manganese Bronze called in administrators.
Mr Batters had dedicated 37 years of his working life to producing London black cabs, and he admits he is "still in shock".
"We feel we've been betrayed by the directors because we've had false hope after hope," he continued.
"They could have given us proper notice and discussed what the selection criteria was going to be. None of that's been done.
"My son works there as well and his wife's just about to have a baby. We've both finished at the same time so it's been like a double whammy in our family.
