You can say what you will about Grittish Bas but,
They are big,they have high profile,they must spend millions advertising,they may even be still perceived as a sort of "state industry" by many, they may also be well trusted as such
However that is where the dung starts getting smelly
I have been self employed for millions of years and will soon be putting the tools on the bar, so they won't impact on me at all
I do feel though,that they will impact on many who trade in the community who rely on the work that BG are targetting
Like em or loathe em, they are very, very real competition
I believe they are a great danger to the little man and his van (even with their rip off ethos) I would not relish the competition in the near future that they possess if I were competing with them
They may well end up almost cornering the market
