Made In McRocco

‘WHEN staff at Careers Scotland, a Scottish employment quango, were told to wear T-shirts saying “Make It In Scotland”, they went along with the plan.

The shirts were worn at careers fairs to try to get schoolchildren interested in the manufacturing sector.

And it might have worked had it not been for small flaw in the scheme – the shirts were made in Morocco.

A Scottish Enterprise spokeswoman said: ‘We are under obligation to get the best products at a competitive price and sometimes this means sourcing them overseas.’

Nuff said.’
