Obscene salaries send the wrong message through a company.
Obscene salaries send the wrong message through a company. The message is that all brilliance emanates from the top; that the worker on the floor of the store or the factory is insignificant.
CEOs of large corporations earn 400 times what their workers make. That is not what America is supposed to be about.
It's not reasonable for companies that have chief executives and board members who are paid very considerable sums to subsidise low pay through in-work benefits.
We're seeing a crazy appetite for people to acquire and invest in British businesses.

I think the greatest CEOs in the United States, business, anyway, are the ones you don't hear too much about.
Our workforce is very co-operative, very flexible, easy to work with and one of the big selling points. The idea that Britain is still back in the labour market of the '70s is utterly bizarre.

The whole industry is so screwed up by economics. It's disgusting to me.
