Fooked Economy

Having the cricket on in the background just reminded me of something I heard on the radio the other day, about the success of one particular company, which makes bats endorsed by two of the England team.

They grow the willow in England (fastest growing plant in the Northern Hemisphere, don't you know), ship the wood to India, where the bats are made, then re-import them to the UK to sell.

How fucked up is that? Surely the world cannot continue in this vein?
