    Good performance by the meat farmers!

    Pity that successive governments do nothing but talk about educating youngsters and then penalise teachers for perceived 'poor work'.

    The result: a workforce capable of only the most menial of jobs with an overblown expectation of their own abilities and worth coupled with a mediocre work ethic. Most here want a job working for the government (600,000 and counting out of 3.3 M men, women and children in the country).

None of my business friends know where any of it is and Chery (the Chinese car maker which assembled cars here) have left. This could have been an excellent opportunity for the workers if only they had worked and not gone on strike after strike ably supported by the unions who have a fatal stranglehold on everything here.
