The Gov't supports outsourcing with a benign tax structure for imported services (aka outsourcing). External workers do not contribute to UK taxes or pensions. As a consequence the UK workers are at an unfair disadvantage.
We continue to leach our skills overseas and don't invest in training UK people. It doesn't take a degree in economy to work out that UK Ltd will go broke.
Shareholders and senior executives might make short term gains, but these are at the cost of corrupting our own industries.
The jeremiah's who say we can't compete oversea's should go boil their heads - I make a great income doing just that. As for industry go look at the Nissan plant where UK workers given propoer investment and management are doing a great job.
