Public wants, what the public gets.....if they demand it ever cheaper then manufacturers will try to achieve that.....that means cheaper labour and production costs.

Comes down to retailers setting expectation too, bit of a tangent but stick with me.....if Tesco say you can buy a chicken for £2, then suddenly that is what we expect and so scorn the idea of paying a fiver for a chicken...it sets our expectation. If we were told the chicken was no less than a fiver then that would be our expectation also. You have to appreciate the choices you make as a consumer....if you buy cheap, you can't really moan that manufacturing in this country has gone for a burton....pay a little more and you support British jobs, and then we all benefit...less out of work, etc.....
