Politicians slam General Motors over Holden dealer compensation

US car giant General Motors has again been roundly criticised in federal parliament over its handling of the closure of the Holden brand and the compensation offered to dealers – as mediation between the two parties started in Melbourne today. Five politicians – from both major political parties – today lined up to strongly criticise the closure of the Holden brand, and again called on General Motors to do the right thing by Holden dealers and their employees.
