Multicultural is another word for tolerance but not acceptance, parallel lives of fear of not commenting of abhorent customs and cultures as it could upset someone, that in itself is distasteful. Multiculturalism is a word for failure and extreme political correctness at the expense of decency and law.
It’s taken all this time, Bazza, but you’ve finally managed to do it. You’ve finally nailed yourself (ironically somewhat eloquently too) in a single post.
Interesting question. The answer is yes and no, I reckon - just at different levels.
I don’t think that there is a call for the British public to be more xenophobic, but I’d be worried if our diplomats and negotiators went into meetings without it. They have to assume that the people that they’re dealing with are going to be looking out for the best interests of their country, so in that limited sense - I think a little mistrust and fear of the opposition is justified.
That’s nads, in my opinion. This is a company with a history of moving its operations out of the UK. They probably had these plans in any event. It’ll be interesting to see where they move it. If it goes to the Turkish plant like a lot of their other manufacturing, we’ll know it’s race to the bottom.
The thing is, with the pound losing value, UK operations should actually be cheaper to run by a company that counts its costs in dollars.
Those car workers in Bridgend and Dagenham might get the future they voted for.
Change the record, mush.
The issue is not the Brexit vote. It’s the ease at which corporations can move jobs out of the country in a globalised free market economy. We need to be a lot more protectionist and concerned about certain industries, not leave workers entirely to the mercy of flighty private finance.
My uncle lost his job and the Swaythling factory was levelled long before Brexit. In true trousers style, corporation does thing that corporations do shocker.
What by saying multiculturalism has failed? I don’t think I am alone there, Merkel, Cameron and many many others have said so, your just being all fascist at what I type and jump on something you obviously know nothing about. Shall I link some things for you to backtrack on and say its different?
Got fuck all to do with the Brexit. More like Ford have to make cost reductions, and having your engine assembly plant in a different country to where the cars are built is a bit stupid.
Righty. Got my answers sorted and stuck on the wall for the PwC interview. Loads of the questions are available online on Wikijob so you can more-or-less kind of ‘script’ things from what I’ve heard. Just thought I’d keep you guys updated.
This is interesting. David Cameron’s resignation honours list is being criticised for including a load of people that campaigned for Remain.
It’s a good job we ended up voting Leave. If this is what Cameron was handing out for failure, who knows what honours they’d get if the vote had gone the way he’d wanted? You’d probably have to invent new ones
According to the Sunday Times, Will Straw, head of the failed official pro-Remain campaign, has been proposed to be made CBE, and Tory and Remain campaign donors, Ian Taylor and Andrew Cook, are in line for knighthoods.
Mr Cameron’s list is also said to have:
Recommended knighthoods for four cabinet colleagues who backed Remain - Philip Hammond, Michael Fallon, Patrick McLoughlin, and David Lidington
Recommended a damehood for Arabella Warburton, chief of staff to former Prime Minister Sir John Major, who campaigned for Remain
Made 24 recommendations for Downing Street staff, including a knighthood for former director of communications Craig Oliver, and an OBE for Isabel Spearman, who was employed as a special adviser to Mr Cameron’s wife, Samantha, but is widely described in newspaper reports as her stylist
Requested that former Chancellor George Osborne, who was dismissed by Theresa May when she became prime minister, be made a Companion of Honour.
