The main problem the UK had is that didn't give bungs.  It's been catching up because it's now using third parties to source, and the third parties are giving the bungs.  That's how these countries operate.  They of course end up paying more still as the third party gets their cut aswell as the people getting the bungs.

I was talking to my dad who had a senior position at British Steel about it this week and he said they'd employ agents to distance themselves.  He told me a story about my godfather, whom I've never knowingly met.  He bumped into him about 20 years later and they went tand had dinner.  He asked him what he was doing these days and he said he was in PR.  He explained that he acted as an agent for BAE, and had one client, a Saudi prince, and it was his job to give him what he wants Laugh

Basically if you want to secure a lot of PPE, you've got to be prepared to bribe influential people in the companies supplying it.

UK labour too expensive to compete.  Up to the public to pay extra and buy British.

One of our biggest cash cows is foreign students at our universities.  That's not looking good for next year.
