What a craven, spineless and self-defeating attitude.
 
have you blown the h/g yet ? Do you know anything about currency conversion or what it costs UK business? I thought not

And what has the Euro cost Germany re the bailouts? Most Germans regret the Euro and would rather go back to the DM.

There is more to this than petty things such as the costs of currency conversion. Doesn't do the US economy any harm.
 
Tony, you still live in the 50's , your idea's on economics are embarrassing. I suggest you read a book before writing anymore. The arrogant 'we know it all' attitude has caused our decline still persists with fools like you. As I said if things are to get better these attitudes must change, I wish. Bedtime now, Ciao stupido

If all you can do is resort to insults, I'm out.

Tony, take a minute... your responses are limited... you aren't seeing the religious attack... move away from the pure financial !!
 
I'm just watching this programme now (recorded earlier).

The reason why Germany's car industry is going from strength to strength and ours has died is very simple.

In Germany they all pull together.
In Britain we all pull in different directions.

And that applies to all industry and many aspects of life in general.

Too late to change now, of course. :cry:
 
Tony, not an insult a fact. Clearly you have no idea what you are on about. JBR, any one can change if they/you really want to.

That's why Germany was successful in the 60s, 70s, 80s and onwards. They formed workers unions that worked with management to plan, change and modernise industry to the benefit of everybody. We also formed unions of course but our lot worked against management, refused to change, refused to modernise and the only planning that took place it was a plan to destroy our industries. We are all now suffering the consequences.
 
Utter rubbish, the people who run the show did nothing to help but line their pockets. If you want a combined effort you have to show a good example, nothing has changed. I'm all right Jack and not in my back yard sums it up

So you think that Britain could once again develop a competitive car industry?

I'll bet you a fiver that we never do.
 
No. Here in the UK we seem to reward failure ask the bankers and other top jokers
