| Having worked in manufacturing related jobs all my life, most of it abroad, it is blatantly obvious that the manufacturing sector in the UK is getting a very short end of a stick held by the government. I've seen some excellent manufacturing facilities around the UK, but even the best struggle mightyly against the strong international competition when the government is seemingly putting them out of business.
Manufacturing is a key underpinning in any country's economy. The Uk seems to think that call centres are the answer, until they get shipped off to India or wherever.
I don't know enough about the Rover situation but the trend in general is very alarming. |
