The Indian head of an international steel company has branded British workers 'lazy' and 'unwilling to go the extra mile', a day after his firm announced the axeing of 1,500 staff.
Businessman Ratan Tata said British managers did not compare favourably with their Indian counterparts, blasting staff he had met at Corus and Jaguar Land Rover, two companies Tata bought in recent years. His comments came after his steel giant firm Tata announced the cutting of 1,500 posts from its three UK factories in economically deprived areas of England.
The Indian firm said it was proposing to close or mothball part of its Scunthorpe plant, putting at risk 1,200 jobs, as well as cutting 300 jobs at its sites on Teesside.
Hardons comment:
All foreign owned busnesses should be Nationalised and owned by the true people of this country and NO compensation should be paid to these foreign speculaters who buy up British companies for next to nothing then move the jobs and the assets to their homeland using the excuse that British workers are lazy. The real truth is that Labour costs are far cheaper in India/China where the people are happy to work for a pitance to line the pockets of the ruling Oligarchy.
At last John, your comments system is working.
ReplyDeleteAlmost every industry in the country is foreign owned, so I would suggest it might be better to just reNationalise those that were in public ownership ie; Transport, water, power, coal etc.
There is room for private ownership, but being held to ransom, and having to give billions in dividends to shareholders for the basic needs of the people is very wrong.
Yes I totally agree with you sentientbeing
