Not only has Germany's Addis, gained the contract for the British Olympic kit, but they are having it made in the sweat shops of Indonesia.

Why couldn't it have been made in this country?

Who was it who said you don't become a successful country by making things. You leave that to the human robots in the far east. We should just concentrate on the design and marketing of a product. Also the profit is not made by the Indonesia but by Addis and the retailers who have such a huge markup on the production price.
The AOC is obviously "going for gold" in the dictatorship stakes.
