Ninety jobs are at risk on Teesside, after the chemical company INEOS confirmed the possible closure of a plant they operate in Stockton. 

INEOS said they had ''no choice'' but to begin a consultation on the job losses.

BASF which owns the plant, has also served notice on its contract with INEOS to supply services and utilities to their Teesside plant, until 2028.
