Dunlop's management had a poor record of investing in their UK plants and it had nothing to do with the unions. The same with Ford's, who would always try and brow beat us to accept any old crap with, 'Germany is more productive'. Yes they were because they invested twice as much in new machinery as they did in for example Halewood.
