Considering the amount of Polish workers that work there will they just go home with a job transfer?

There will be a lot of unemployed people in the next 5 years, a little bit of hurt is expected apparently

Never bought one or seen one, is it a low seller?

I found it last in a list of worst biscuits from the 1990s - http://metro.co.uk/2015/06/08/british-biscuits-of-...

"The Alan Titchmarsh of biscuits – harmless enough and a firm favourite of your Nan but essentially a bit boring. Receiving one of these was like hearing the Ground Force team had ruined your lawn with cheap decking. Underwhelming"

The company said: “These proposals are being made by Nestlé UK to ensure that these sites operate more efficiently and remain competitive in a rapidly changing external environment." = Their customers are dying off.

Blue Riband is horrible though. Surprised they still sell them.

Yawn, it's got nothing to do with Brexit, UK confectionery/food co.s being bought out and moving production abroad to cut costs has been rife for years.

Not like the EU giving a non EU country £80M to set up a Turkish Ford Transit production line so the UK one could be closed eh!

Maybe you should start buying multipacks to help the effort.

It's the sort of thing you'd give your kids to put them off eating chocolate.

I'll save up and buy some.


I do prefer to buy UK made choccy, since choccy is a treat this isn't a hard prerequisite, stopped buying anything made the Kraft tts a while back.
