    Anyone here being threatened with rate cuts?

    'Mass suicide' protest at China Foxconn factory - Telegraph

    Around 150 Chinese workers at Foxconn, the world's largest electronics manufacturer, threatened to commit suicide by leaping from their factory roof in protest at their working conditions.


    I think that might work here too.

        A bit drastic. Threatening a mass homicide of their bosses would do the trick.

          That factory makes components for XBoxen. Production of XBox 360s was suspended for several hours. Not a problem

                It reminded me of the Mongols. I think it was Ghingis, invaded China, won a few battles, capured a few towns, then besieged the first major city in his path.
                After a few weeks, thousands of the young women got dressed up in their finest silks and jumped off the walls to their deaths.
                They called it 'the falling tear drops' or some such

                  I know a few Mongols, but I fear you have say 'Downs' or 'Downs Syndrome' now.

                  There's one in Bolton, we call him 'Spazzy Darren'. His is called Darren and he is a legend...
