Also, if your discussion is meant to have value (rather than just to troll treez), it should be moved to a suitably titled separate thread, so that others can find it now and in the future.

Well, let us split your comment, into two half's.
The first part, us (especially me), going off-topic. I agree. I/we should have put it into a properly named thread.
It seemed to be started, by me attempting to explain to Treez, the in-practicalities and difficulties, of 100% bringing back full manufacturing to the UK, in one quick go.

But, as regards the second point/concept. Let us perform an experiment, in real life.
Let us put essentially the same/identical thread into a completely independent forum. With a zero/one post (new) poster, and see how they react.
To save time, let's do it, around a week in the PAST.
By coincidence, someone, I have absolutely no idea who did it (Cough cough cough TREEZ), has already done it for us.
Let's see what happened.
N.B. They (presumably) don't know TREEZ, and have no idea of his past history.
What are they saying.

OK Folks, I think I can clear this up.
There is a glaring error in the original post, the OP's country flag states he is from the UK, and he posts his web links under a .co.uk site, yet he clearly states this:
--- Quote ---color changing lights etc etc.

Now, i'm quite sure the correct spelling is coloUr for the UK, therefore I don't believe this offer is real or it is not intended to be taken upon by a UK resident.
My mind is split 50/50, but I have a strong suspicion that this is a load of Charlie Hollocks.
In the present situation he shouldn't even be leaving his house let alone fly around the globe to China and who knows if this opportunity will still be present when it "all blows over", it could be that the company in question goes to the dogs. No, I think the best thing is to stick with what you are currently doing and keep the forum entertained with your posts, at least you should have more time to entertain us with your tales.
The best thing for the Portsmouth / Southampton area right now is for you to stick with your current job. :-DD
Ohh, I almost forgot my request, when you get bored with lighting, maybe you can (pun intended) enlighten us with some tales about drones?

Perhaps because anybody who finds it by happenstance can immediately see that it's a "one man and his dog" outfit, and that the dog's legged it.
Of course anyone who has been directed there, has been directed there by you, and with an introduction like that...
I don't know why you persist with all your scheming, it always amounts to nothing at the end of the day. Surely by now you can see that you just don't really have a grasp of the world as it is, and lack the vision or drive to become one of the unreasonable men who actually manages to "adapt the world to himself". That you're reduced to your latest scheme that is little short of fraud, and bears no chance of ending in a fat government grant, a jail cell perhaps, but no grant, is surely a wakeup call that you need to chnage tack. I fear that you're doomed to wander living the life of "Walter Mitty esq., Industrialist".

What a load of crap. I have seen this "job opportunity" before under slightly different guises. In any case if it were true, only a fool would take such a job.
Anyone who sells out their integrity by being involved in such a scam is no better than a prostitute, corrupt politician, conman or drug dealer. They can keep their dirty money. Those of us who are honest and earn honest money in altruistic electronics industries can at least sleep at night and look at our friends and family with our heads held high. We have our integrity intact and this should never be for sale. But this is a generalisation. Some people lack empathy, integrity or social responsibility no matter what.
Our Australian federal government has been treating our poorest citizens with utter contempt and have driven some to suicide. (https://www.sbs.com.au/news/nothing-to-apologise-for-minister-backs-stuart-robert-over-failed-robodebt-scheme). No apology given by the bastards behind the Robodebt scheme. No integrity and no accountability either. It appears some people can sleep at night no matter what.
As engineers and technicians our integrity should not be for sale and we we need to work in industries that do good for people and make good decisions along the way.
