    about cheap contractors and cheap warplanes

    Apparently in this case, France won the contract over UK by being the "cheapest" bidder. Others try to sell things cheap as well. The PM is unhappy about this decision to choose the lowest bidder.

      The French may be able do it with plenty cheapness but can they do it with much quickness?

                Possibly a cynical comment that 'ethnic minority' of a quarter I wonder if they are just long term employees granted citizenship?

                  Jobs: “I didn’t have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends’ rooms, I returned Coke bottles for the 5-cent deposits to buy food with, and I would walk the seven miles across town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple. I loved it.”
