Firstly, I apologise for misjudging your comments.
What I mean by 'doubters in values' was based on the assumption that you were possibly holding PA management responsible for the current situation prevailing and perhaps assuming that their values were anything less than honourable to their employees and business commitments, however you are evidently not, so again, my apologies.
I made the comment because of my increasing awareness of peoples lack of values in todays society to the point that many make glib comments that do more damage than good nowadays, a point you are evidently not guilty of by your response.
It is a shame however that the majority of modern society seems bent on its own self destruction when the majority of news worthy stories are based on the sensationalised style of reporting, popular television is based on reality shows so far removed from reality I wonder what kind of mentality actually sees them as acceptable behaviour and our goverment allow our country to be progressively assett stripped.
It should be controlling both company takeovers, import/export laws, profit capping of our huge profit declaring companies or controlling the yearly price increases, then re-examining our farming, engineering and education policies to name but a few.
We used to be the best at all, for example if a child was not as clever as another it was acceptable to tell it so, not lower the grading standards to show a balanced level of education results year on year, if a company was successful it was rewarded by Queens Awards to Industry, not allowed to be bought by an multi-national and assett stripped with production moved to a country that pays less than a dollar an hour, then finally using UK produce only in supermarkets, where available, and forcing them not to use the import savings excuses provided by the big cheeses at the Supermarkets to force our own perfectly good agricultural suppliers out of business.
I'm sure farmers could produce competitive prices in mass production if only someone put a little effort into rescueing this flagging industry, Engineering is running out of experienced people nowadays and the government seems to think a degree in engineering taught by computer based software products solves all, to the point experience now carries no weight in an interview and we have children and young adults who can neither spell or articulate any more.
Then we are given the new hope that we can become the worlds teachers!
A short sighted view good for one generation only and possibly only 5% of it. Once the third world nations have been taught they can teach their own and our own industry and experience will be no more to give jobs to or even teach the next generation. But fear not we will have a service industry, to serve whom, when no-one has any jobs to earn money to buy the services in the first place.
Food for thought?
Regards
