With the announcement that the economic recovery may be precarious due to a our weak manufacturing industry, wouldn t it be good if we could all consider buying goods made in the UK?
I am ridiculously happy with my new Honda Jazz and bought it not just because it's an extremely good car but because it is made in the UK and thus sustaining the jobs for the car workers in Swindon( who I believe had to be laid off temporarily due to low demand).
We also bought our double glazing from a company because the windows were made in Barnsley.
It is also more environmentally friendly as it cuts down on transport.
