American owned and financed with American loans. Lets hope we learn to have more British companies.

Various investment companies have been playing pass the parcel with Shearing for a while now, its probably already been asset stripped.


There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music. David Osland 2025

National Coach Holidays are part of SLG, the Shearings Leisure Group, there are a lot of divisions.
