FORD has cancelled a 30-year tradition of holding a Christmas party, in what workers said was a ``kick in the guts'' for 600 Geelong workers set to be sacked by 2010.
The auto giant has decided to cancel its regular December festivities during what is a difficult year for the company, which announced plans to close its Norlane engine plant in July.

Looks like the Bean Counters have done it again, Santa's gone to india cause its cheaper over there to deliver presents. The grinch obviously works for Ford Management.
Will GOD SAVE THE QUEEN , because nobody will save the FORD XMAS PARTY ,and no child will be spared from Fords cost cutting measures . "But i will still support Geelong Football Club as quoted by Mr GORMAN "
You can always count on these grubs to add salt to the wound.
Absolute disgrace cancelling the Xmas party. Even though I may add, employees of Ford had to pay for presents anyway!!!! And last year, people from Geelong had to travel to Melbourne with the Broadmeadows folk. They are a bunch of tight arses anyway!!!!
Once again, they will kick workers when they are already down.
Wouldn't it be great to have a Christmas party without being sponsored by Ford?
