It's daft though isn't it. Even if products are made in the UK what about the tools used to make them? What about the transport?

It's all very silly

I think that's where I'm going.
I don't think you can get away with at least something coming from China or the Far East at least.

I hesitated a bit about Cotswold Aquarius because I was wondering where they got the material/cloth from.
I know a guy who runs a very successful cloth supplying business and he gets a lot of his stock from the Far East.

Calm down mate. It was a hypothetical question, so don't get so excited.
Why is everything taken so seriously on here?!
The reason I was talking about boycotting Chinese manufacturing has little to do with the Coronavirus outbreak, as we still don't know the full facts, only the things that the press is spoon feeding us.
My reason “Hypothetically” is because: A, being a massive animal lover, it repulses me how they have zero respect for any living thing. And B, it would be nice to see industry and manufacturing re-blossom elsewhere, rather than the Chinese industry having monopoly on it. Simple as that really.

But back to the original question....what about Edwards Custom Upgrades?!

So the whole of China has Zero respect for any living thing? That's a big statement.

Some people would argue that animal lovers wouldn't put a hook through a fishes mouth and drag it out of its environment just for a photo.

I'm all for light hearted banter but just don't understand your thinking.
