Problems ahead18 Nov 2022 08:12
Our big problem is that China has snubbed us on World stage , and would not talk to our Indian boy . They are hell bent on a war with Taiwan to take it over and there is nought we can do about it, or is there . We could stop buying Chinese goods , but seeing everything we buy is from there we would soon have empty shops. To be Green all we have done is shut down our industry transferred the manufacture to the naughty CO2 emission countries like China and India and far east and then patted ourselves on the back , saying aren't we good boys. Time we grew up chucked out the hooray henry's and got back to producing goods we can export around the World and make some money. We were once great , we could be again if we got our hands dirty again. Lloyds and the other banks have got the money to invest in us , now is the time to get going. We could start by insisting our German owned Electric Mini is produced here and not shipped to China as planned. We could produce cars, the new batteries ,the new computers and silicon chips , so why not ? We are meant to have great universities turning out great talent , so why not use it in development.
