Minister Praises Company She Recently Attacked

Lilianne Ploumen, Minister of Foreign Trade (Labor) has praised the CoolCut Textile firm as a firm which is ahead of others because its code of conduct forbids child employment and exploitation. She also praised the company because of the way it promotes sustainability. In November however, she said that CoolCut didn’t take its responsibility toward workers seriously. Thereupon, Roland Kahn, Director of CoolCut, took Ploumen to court. Perhaps to avoid the court case, Ploumen changed her opinion. On a hidden camera, Kahn called Ploumen “a c*nt minister.” www.elsevier.nl/Politiek/nieuws/2014/1/Minister-Ploumen-schrijft-reclamefolder-CoolCat-1452304W
