Honda to create 500 new jobs in UK

Honda has announced that it is creating 500 new jobs at its factory in Swindon.

The news came on the same day that the plant returned to full production.

For the past months, workers there have been doing reduced hours because of supply problems caused by the floods in Thailand - where some components are made.

Honda says the supply chain has improved enough for full production to resume.

The BBC's Alison Vowles spoke to workers at the Honda plant in Swindon who are relieved the plant is running at full production again.
