Stop whining, go abroad and get a job.
Suck up to the boss, get a well paid job in the EU, your boyfriend gets expenses.
Well it worked for him, until he had to leave in a hurry.
Hand in the cookie jar.
AGAIN.

Wonderfully inspiring that the Business Secretary is telling workers that they stand a better chance of getting a job abroad. Shows great confidence in his ability to achieve amazing things for Britain.
Bringing Mandelson back is clearly yet another brlliant move by the genius who sold the gold, wrecked the pensions, promised the end of boom and bust, or at least boom, etc.

In the report the only quote is: “It would be a huge mistake to retreat from a policy where, within the rules, UK companies can operate in Europe and European companies can operate here,” he said. “Protectionism would be a sure-fire way of turning recession into depression.” |

Yes. Why does he have a job like he does when he spouts such twaddle Mandy got on his bike and went abroad to get a job in Brussels when he was unemplyable in the UK. The rest of us should follow his example (although probably not into something as cushy as commissioner of the EU, but there aren't many of that job to go round). |

Labour had a field day with Norman Tebbit when he came out with the now famous "On your Bike".
Mandy new version "Get a flight"
And if your Mandy "Business class on the expenses please"

I'd be interested to see how an working class English person got on trying to get a job in Europe.

Well I've got news for you Mandy, that may not have been a good career move. Can you remember the winter of 1978/79? I can. Bye bye Callaghan, hello Thatcher. Methinks history could be about to be repeated. |

Mandelson is an odious little worm. He and Mong ought to be sealed in an airtight cargo container and dumped in Irish Sea.

Can someone remind us what's wrong with what Mandy's said. Everyone was happy when Tebbit said it, so why not the preening queen?
I know a funny story about him, by the way, and a fish and chip shop. Does anyone want to hear it?

I'm still trying to find out if he said what the thread says he said. Because the one quote from him doesn't say it.

Two things:
Labour had a field day with this at the time. What a nasty thing to say to the unemployed.
Norman meant moving to a different part of the country, not a different one.
