Mary Portas's bottom line - Telegraph

At the very least Mary Portas deserved a civil honour for even attempting to get this up and going.

We need thousand of her.

If any of the cuk ladies want a free pair you just have to pop round to my place and model them and you can have them for free......

They don't have many bloody sizes left.

One of the things that annoys me about buying things in the UK is the lack of stock.

£10 for a pair of kecks? That'd get me 20 pairs down the market.

Whats the point when our government rewards the big contracts to anyone but ourselves.

True - but it does say in the article these are high end and people will pay £30 for similar(but made abroad) elsewhere.

Personally I would be prepared to pay a bit more for products made in the UK. And getting the stuff at a third of the price is superb!
