Comments by "JamesT" (@Parawingdelta2) on "Dyson and the ethics of hypocrisy" video.
Is establishing manufacturing for one's products overseas an exception to the rule? No doubt partly due to the behaviour of piss ant unionists who, despite not actually contributing much themselves, want to have a hand in determining how business owners run their companies. Just before I left England in 1979, I worked for the 'Rootes Group' when Britain had a proud motor car industry. Rootes were forced by the British government to set up shop in Linwood in Scotland to manufacture the Hillman Imp. The intention was to inject employment into an economically depressed area of the UK. Unfortunately, the heavily unionised workforce had the habit of going on strike when the pie warmer in the amenities room wasn't working and paid little attention to putting all the bits and pieces of the poor Imp in the right places. I was a union member in local government for over twenty years, and I've seen good union organisers do good things, but it seems to be a rarity. Thankfully, my new Toyota Camry was made in Japan.
