    Bob says you are all lazy bastards

    Do the needful please, plenty cheapness and much quickness if you don't mind.

    Mr Tata said that things are different in his native India.
    "If you are in a crisis, if it means working to midnight, you would do it."
    There's a ******* reason you're used to working until midnight Bob.

    "I hope Celtic realise that, if their team is good enough, they will win. If they're not good enough, they'll not win - and they can't look at anybody else, whether it is referees or any other influence." - Walter Smith

    On them! On them! They fail!

        If there is a crisis I would be far happier knowing that the management where safely outta the building where they can't cause any more damage

          To be fair after they took ownership they've turned it around to make £1 bln profit whilst still making real things that are in demand outside of this country.

            Mr Tata, you may have noticed that most people in Britain live in clean, well maintained houses in neighbourhoods with proper roads, sewage systems and even some nice trees to freshen the air. They quite like being at home because in most cases, it's quite a nice place with a nice roast chicken in the oven. Maybe people in India stay at work longer because for many of them, going home involves leaving a comfortable, clean, air conditioned office to traipse through open sewers and piles of garbage and dying lepers on the way to a cramped and dirty little shack in the hope that their wife's scraped together enough rice for them to have a meal before grabbing a few hours kip in one room with the rest of their extended family.

            But of course, Mr Tata, I expect you've forgotten how most people in India live.

              He's probably right. Best to import 10,000 indians on ICT visas and replace the native workforce. The can get back to watching daytime TV and living on benefits like proper Brits.

                  Actually I've just read the article and he's got a point.

                    He was talking about managers specifically. In his country cost of one UK manager is probably equivalent to 100 locals, and just imagine what he thinks when he looks at tax paid (NI+Inc+Corp+BRates).
