Workers of the Ford car factory block the entrances of their factory in Genk, some 100kms north east of Brussels, on October 24, 2012. US auto giant Ford announced today the imminent closure of its plant in Belgium's northeastern Genk, threatening the loss of 4,300 jobs as the drop in demand for cars across Europe slows production.
