If this is taken to its logical conclusion there will be NO jobs in the UK and the firms selling these products will not have anyone to buy them.
I wouldn't mind if it was being done to stop firms going completely bust, but it isn't, it is done to increase profits that already run into billions of pounds a quarter, it is absolutely obscene and has to be stopped before it's too late.
I repeat, firms should be BOYCOTTED if they sack UK staff for this reason. I closed my Lloyds TSB account earlier in the year because they insist on sacking UK staff and replacing them with Indian staff on a fraction of the wage.
The most obscene thing I heard recently was some pompous Tory prat saying that UK workers who want to protect their jobs should agree to work for the same amount (about £3,000 a year). Well I will do that gladly, just as soon as my council tax alone doesn't amount to half that sum.
I get really fed up when people who struggle to make ends meet get accused of greed, especially by fatcat MPs who can vote themselves massive rises.

Mark - I really don't think anyone actually
supports 'sacking UK staff in favour of Idian call centres etc. I certainly don't. But I do understand it from a business point of view. It's cheaper to run, services can be sold for less to the customer and more profit can be made. End of.
