We laugh at our peril. Cadbury symbolises the total lack of vision shown by short term investors only out to make a fast buck and the system behind them that rewards a select few. A few so drunk on wealth that they think its their divine right to play god with jobs and a countries long term prospects. It symbolises UK goverments so out of tune with the public politician wonder why politics is a dirty word. If I could vote for French rule I would not because I like the French per se but because they are proud to defend their businesses and their heritage. Those that say this thwarts inward investment go and visit France every major international company is represented and they came out of recession long before we did. Yes they have problems but they also have something missing in Britain self belief & pride.
