    “household appliances are 24{e5d1b7155a01ef1f3b9c9968eaba33524ee81600d00d4be2b4d93ac2e58cec2d} cheaper”

    Yet expectations on performance and durability are higher.

    Yes Evan Davis made that report back in January this year. Doesn’t make good reading I have to say as in the L-O-N-G term especially in our trade we are entering a BLACK HOLE and there is no escape.

    Third world economies will benefit at the demise of our local industry that cannot compete with China and the Far East. They work 10 hours days and take home just $1 to feed a family of 5. It works for them and they love it.

    Try feeding a family of 5 in the UK for $1 and you will see where I am coming from here 🙁
