7. "Harry’s mouth fell open. The dishes in front of him were now piled with food. He had never
seen so many things he liked to eat on one table: roast beef, roast chicken, pork
chops and lamb chops, Yorkshire pudding, peas, carrots, gravy, ketchup and, for some
strange reason, mint humbugs."
Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, J. K. Rowling

25. Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) is becoming more
important for businesses in the UK, where there is strong growth in
consumer activism thanks to the prevalence of social media and
grass roots organizations.
The three main themes for CSR in the UK are work place
issues (work life balance, human rights, employment); community
contribution (big society/social justice) and the environment
(sustainability of resources, etc).
The UK has subscribed to the Millennium Goals of the United
Nations and many business leaders are actively working towards
achieving these. The UK Government supports CSR through tax
breaks and the encouragement of charitable giving.
27. In general, the British value time-keeping for business
arrangements. If you set up a meeting for two o’clock, the
chances are your counterparts will arrive on time or just
before. It is considered very impolite to arrive late for a
business meeting. The busier people are, the greater the
likelihood that they will have to leave for another
engagement, so respecting their time is very important.
31. When it comes to business dress
codes, classical conservative attire is
the norm for both men and women in
British culture and dark colors such as
black, dark blue and charcoal grey are
predominant.
33. Bribery and corruption are generally taken very seriously
in the United Kingdom and the chances of a bribe being
accepted are very low. The risks are too high and it is strongly
advisable not to try to bribe anyone.
