the UK games industry needs to provide careers rather than jobs that last until a week before the release date of the game being developed

the UK games industry needs to provide adequate remuneration

the UK games industry wouldn't die if it provided training in the necessary skills for the people it employs

the UK games industry needs to start looking at a wider demographic when looking for staff, there are lots of people out there with the right skills but they don't get a look in as they don't fit the industries "rad" image

the UK games industry needs to stop whining

and which companies comprise the UK games industry anyway ? all the good games companies I know of are multinational or at least have offices in more than one country
