Message: <blockquote data-quote="Mad as Fish" data-source="post: 145390" data-attributes="member: 396">I was out there for a couple of days recently at a trade event and what was most striking was that nobody dared discuss the energy price, it was all containable and workable and generally swept under the carpet. I got the distinct impression that the Germans are in full denial as their great and much vaunted manufacturing industry crumbles around them. My country, right or wrong is the maxim to live by and it was only occasionally that cracks would be allowed to appear.As part of the trip I had to listen to an address by one grand CEO of a trade organisation telling us how digital technology is now the driver of growth and the world will ever more depend upon it to get along. It was all a regurgitation of fashionable cliches rather than a serious overview of the current situation, a missed opportunity, but the alternative would be to admit that Germany has screwed up, and that was never going to happen.One small ray of hope was that climate change was only muttered about rather than loudly proclaimed as in days of yore.</blockquote>
