PSA Peugeot Citroen has revealed that it wants to buy General Motors’ loss-making European arm, which includes Vauxhall plants at Luton and Ellesmere Port.
There’s fears that the takeover could lead to job losses.
Vauxhall employs 4,500 workers at the two UK plants, with thousands more involved in its retail and components chain.
A Downing Street spokesman said: “We can confirm we have received a meeting request.
“The meeting will take place, in principle, subject to diary availability.”
