it's your M&S....


Most of us know where cheap goods come from. Many are aware of appalling conditions these are manufactured in. Almost all of us are taken in by large-budget, feasible-sounding, "nothing bitter about our fairtrade coffee" type campaigns.

The recent panorama programme featured Primark. While we focus here, others are getting away with unacceptable things packaged as ethical practice. Don't just take my word for it, though.

After all, we want our children to look their best in school uniforms, don't we? So what's it matter if people are paid 60p a day? It's a lot of money for them, isn't it? Don't forget, it's "your M&S"......

That is absolutely disgraceful.

So, what should we do? Write to supermarkets or MPs?
