"Dignity Is For The Middle Class." What's being taught in business school.

Poor Professor Jeremy Baker. He's currently trending on Twitter for all the wrong reasons.

Sports Direct founder, Mike Ashley, will be answering a Parliamentary Committee's questions this morning. Mr Ashley had previously refused to meet the Committee who had asked him to discuss his businesses working conditions. Realising that he would be in Contempt of Parliament, which can lead to a fine and a prison sentence, Mr Ashley has changed his mind.

But who can blame this billionaire for his attitude towards the people who create his wealth? Jeremy Baker is an affiliate professor of Entrepreneurship, Marketing and International business at ESCP Europe, London Campus. People wanting an MBA pay a great deal of money for this kind of teaching. He defended Mr Ashley on the Today Programme this morning.

I'm looking for a transcript of the following interview because it's a straightforward description of the naked prejudices including frank racism that great many people believe is just good business. Intelligent, well educated people in good standing with their communities and professional organisations.

Please take the time to listen to the interview which positively and explicitly agrees with and encourages the exploitation of people who are not 'middle class'.
