British Industries are NOT viable if the BRITISH people don't buy their wares. Governments don't close factories; loss of orders, cash flow and high overheads not being met because workers are on strike are the reasons. Back in the 70s there used to be a shop steward frequent the same watering hole - a fervent Labourite and union member he strongly believed in demarkation, stoppages and go slows to protect his workers from his manufacturing employers. Those jobs were the only jobs he 'protected' as all his clothes were foreign and so was the car he drove - if I'd looked around his home I've also no doubt it would have been furnished with cheap foreign imports. I've no doubt that he, just like the majority of Brits were blindly destroying the manufacturing heritage of this country.
