UK mobile phone company Orange has announced plans to outsource 1,500 jobs, or 12 per cent of its British workforce, to India.The group is also making 200 staff redundant from the technical department at its Bristol office.The move is part of a drive by its parent company, France Telecom, to cut costs. Apparently the French think the British trade unions are a soft touch and it is easier to make people redundant across the channel than it is at home.
