shindigger Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Interviewed in the middle of a BHS shop i presume. Surrounded by people shopping merrily/ poking over the reduced pants. Nobody batted an eyelid. Nobody recognised Pesto! Nobody! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest X-QUORK Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Not surprising given the bovine brain activity of the average shopper. Already disadvantaged with sub 100 IQs, their internal CPUs flicker around 1% until they find something they want. Tunnel vision sets in as they hurry to the light, or the till as it's called. Endorphins flood through the system as the magic beeping sound signals a successful purchase, then it's back to idle brain state as they return to grazing the shopping centre pastures with the rest of the herd.

Nobody batted an eyelid. Nobody recognised Pesto! Nobody! what is worrying is that this business guru Greens solution to falling sales is for the banks to issue more credit. Mr Green is clearly a beneficiary of the excess of credit from the last 10 years, and thinks its a good idea to carry on. totally VI.

chichi Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Was that the pre 8am interview? The one where only one person had a coat on. Warm in London was it this morning? Or were they all staff? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He says issue more credit one day and then calls for a return to 'old fashioned banking' the next. Sounds like that other self proclaimed consumers friend Richard Branson sometimes.

@contradevian Posted October 21, 2008 Share Posted October 21, 2008 Whats Philip Green doing in the UK? Isn't he a resident of Monaco? Dare say Peston did a totally toadying interview and didn't ask the right question such as "when you go to pay some tax in the UK you fat scumbag?"

I could actually visualise this in my head as I was reading it. Reminded me of that department store scene in Father Ted. Great stuff.
