Lack of ability hasn't been an obstacle to outsourcing yet, all that matters is "are they cheap"

That's a good point, but I can't see corporates outsourcing their legal people. That would be the last department to go, I'd have thought. You never know though.

I work in the legal sphere at the moment. I can't see Bob getting his head around English legal language (but it might be interesting to see him try).

I hope they outsource legal services to India, then I will crack open the bubbly

Sasguru,

Weren't you the one saying do the work of 10 Bobs or lump it, or accept £10 an hour or lump it, it's globalisation and it's great?

Not so funny now is it?

Let's face it, your Excel skills are easily outsourced to India. They have basic stats knowledge too.

WHS. Many celebrated when we gave away IT, not least the indigenous computing press, and most others in the general population didn't give a stuff. We should likewise celebrate giving away pharma

Please point that post out to me.
I suspect it may be a problem with your poor English comprehension.

Bad news.

OK, I'm not up to date on the reasons behind this. What could/should the government past and present have done to prevent it?

They could do similar to what Ted Heath did to save Rolls Royce Aero. Set up a new company with the existing staff.

I think Pfizer will lose out because innovation is not just about using people with the right educational certificates. One just has to look at the qualified Bobs who freeze at the sight of the first problem they have to work out for themselves.

He was the one saying couple of years ago that Britain is so good to pharma companies that there is no need for other industries - why bother right?
