    Scotland in Fairtrade nation bid

    Come on England keep up there in the back.

    Scotland is on course to become a Fairtrade nation later this year, according to External Affairs Secretary Fiona Hyslop.

    Across the country, 62 towns have either achieved Fairtrade status or have active steering groups.

    Almost two-thirds of higher education institutions and 171 schools have achieved the standard.

    I am deeply suspicious of any context within which the word "fair" is applied. Do any of these idiots who fall for this Politically Correct garbage ever bother to check what is meant by "fair"

      Your floccinaucinihilipilification is to be expected. At it's very heart your industry allows the feckless to profit unfairly, whilst others work on and your coppers continue to fall from the sky. So why would you recognise fair even if it hit in you face with the full force of a hungry hippo?

        Who defines what is fair and what is unfair?

          While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'

                  I'm sure one of the posters on here does google lessons. Perhaps they'll give you a discount if you ask nicely.

                    What a coward you are hiding behind a literal explanation in a dictionary. You can do better than that by applying it to the concept of "fair trade"
