They have this in green and pink for £14! It's awesome (ruched skirt, no straps). Sorry about the grumpy face, my boyfriend was telling me I have fat knees at the time :)

Panorama is doing a program on Primark. It's on right now. (Sorry, I only found out it was going to be on yesterday.)
Link.
'The programme, which is aired tonight, follows children such as 11-year old Mantheesh, who is paid 60p a day to work within a refugee camp sweatshop.'
Another link.
Primark's response to Panorama.
From their response:
'Production of the garments identified by the BBC was sub-contracted without Primark’s knowledge or consent by the factories concerned to third parties using unauthorised home workers, including children.'
...
'People in the developing world benefit from the ability to trade with companies like Primark: the result for them is a higher standard of living and a better quality of life. Primark supports some 2 million people through its supply contracts. Primark also recognises that further progress must be made to improve working conditions in developing nations. As part of its contribution, the company has already announced its intention to establish the ‘Primark Better Lives Foundation’, which will provide financial assistance to organisations devoted to improving the lives of young people including those identified by Panorama. In addition to the initial funding Primark is endowing the Foundation with any profits made from the affected garments.' ETA: None of the afore mentioned garments are being sold anymore. So, what profits? :/
Is anyone watching? What do you lot think? These peoples lives are still poor, but they would be poorer without Primark. It's a difficult situation. Honestly, I want to and like buying cheap clothes in 'bulk' but, I dunno... I don't know how I feel. :/

Hey all, this is my first post (am a new member) so hello : )
Just a couple of things really..
I finally found the Primark 'Ella' shirt dress ! There was only one left in the Bromley Primark and I managed to get it for £6 because there was a button missing and it had a dodgy zip : D Does anyone know if the Oxford Street store has any of the strapless, floral Ella dresses left at all??
Anyhoo..lotsa pretty Primark stuff atm ! Especially the floral short/skirt combos : )

I'm looking for a Primark wallet as I already have the matching passport holder. There aren't any in the Barnsley or Meadowhall Primark. It'd be great if anyone could pick one up for me, i'd cover the costs of the item, p+p and a bit extra. Thank you :)

Also, can I just say how great the white lace up sandshoes are. £2 for a pair and they're so comfy! Fantastic.
I'd really recommend them.
