My original question when I started this post was to hear if anyone had learned about specific places or companies that we should avoid.I wanted to know of there was a list published ? Does anyone know

I expect there are loads of them to flash up on your foriegn made screen. But just remember the northern weavers when 'cotton was king', the welsh foundries less than a hundred years ago, the miners in the general strike. All they wanted was a living wage. The fat cats got fatter and the workers starved.

Even todays minimum wage cannot feed a family unless they go cap in hand to a benefits agency, pensioners, some of which fought for their country are eking out a subsistance.  Better to have a shilling than none at all, and their shilling goes a lot further than ours.

When we have the sense to vote in polititions who really care, things might change. Until then we have only ourselves to blame.
