Your attitude explains a lot about how the UK manufacturing sector has sunk as low as it has compared to the rest of the world, and it's not just down to poor management................
Quite:
UK Bicycle industry ...
UK Motor Cycle industry .......
UK Car industry ........
UK Ship Building Industry .......
UK Railway Locomotive and Rolling Stock industry ........
the list goes on
near where I live, there were factories making Heavy Duty Insulators for the Electric Transmission Industry, Turbines for electricity generation, numerous ship building/ship repair yards, they employed tens of thousands of people... all gone now, many of the sites are now covered in housing
We were leaders in all of these fields in the fairly recent past.....
