Evidence?.....multinationals take as much business as they can to places in the world where they assume no responsibility for the wellbeing of the workforce. Dear old Thatch chucked our entire mining industry in the direction of profiteers from child labour.

Figures?......you try and find a coalmine in England. a motorbike factory, a garment made in England in Marks and Spencer...

Statistics even?....anyone with an IQ above room temperature stopped counting ages ago.

Just a modicum of of commonsense requireed, Don.

Look if you want to vote Tory. You do it. But don't pretend any kind of patriot has had any lumber with that party for a generation. It has behaved disgracefully to the good tories like John MacGregor and Michael Hesseltine, who had some view of public service. The generation who fought in the war is gone. Just toffee nosed little turds left with a superiority complex to the rest of us.

And incidentally baby boomer education and welfare didn't come free. It was fought for by our fathers - tories and labour alongside each other.

it was only when the black marketeers daughter took over that things hit the skids.
