I'm convinced that his attitude is good and that the board have acted in good faith. I'm also very concerned that the quality of communications over the last week could cost us in a big way. I really hope I'm wrong though...'"
You're possibly right. To me though had Hood been in the press and said
"I am asking the businesses of Bradford to help us. We are like you, we employ people in the city and we're in dire trouble. Please can we ask that you help us in any way you can"
But instead he says
"The small and medium enterprises and larger businesses could very easily and potentially match the pledge figure.
There is no groundswell of support from the Bradford business community, except for the odd pledge. The man in the street might pledge £100, which is tremendous. I’d like to think that small and medium-sized businesses in Bradford could at least match that or perhaps do more than that, given that we are like them and employ 150 people in the city."
It just doesn't sit right with me - all I want to say to him is get your own house in order before you start suggesting what other businesses should do.
Just semantics but goodness it bothers me!
