TODAY sees the millionth Honda car roll off the production line in Swindon.

As great as the achievement undoubtedly is, it is merely the latest in an on-going series which prove the town's status as an industrial and technological success story.

Generations of Swindonians have had a hand in the prosperity of the nation.

The skilled and dedicated workers at Honda are to be congratulated.

Long may their achievements, and those of their fellow Swindon people in industries such as engineering and computer manufacture, continue.
