G.m.firth (Holdings) Plc (No 2)

EDM number 568 in 1992-93, proposed by David Clelland on 25/09/1992.

That this House calls upon the Board and shareholders of G.M. Firth (Holdings) plc to question whether the practice of their Chairman in referring to employees at Spartan Redeugh, Gateshead, as 'Thick Geordie Bastards' and other puerile, offensive and obscene expressions not fit to print, while generally throwing his weight about during the first hours of his arrival at the plant, is commensurate with civilised behaviour let alone effective industrial relations.

This motion has been signed by a total of 36 MPs.
