As regarding manufacturing,yes.It will never happen,though.If a large national retail chain can make another nickel importing goods from China instead of being manufactured at home....

Sorry, but the whole EU-gang is once again getting enmeshed in its "let's-talk-this-through-until-the-problem-resolves-itself mode". Meanwhile each nation is trying to salvage its own economy without being too bothered about their EU-neighbours, let alone anyone outside of that friendly little community of ours.

Guess we're in over our heads on this one. Then again, isn't the whole world?

Would you buy a used country from this man? (Insert photo of Uncle Sam here.)

I would if I could, I could do with an extension of my backyard.

Am afraid though that the Chinese have already beaten me to it
