    What Kraft have done to Cadbury should be seen as nothing short of a national scandal.

    I boycotted their products years ago.

    Is it one of the Cadbury products which contains so little cocoa that is technically a margarine?

    I couldn't tell you what the formulas are now but that really wouldn't surprise me, they've fundamentally changed from what they inherited. They pledged they wouldn't change product ingredients, but they did (and lied about it) and then pumped them full of synthetic American "favourites".

    I'm not sure whats worse, that they did what they did, or that people still put it in their cakeholes.

    Firm to invest their own money in their own factory to the benefit of no one really.

    This story is not exactly the Iranian Embassy

    I also read that Falklanders are being hugely affected too, clearly not even considered by DePfeffel and his charlatans. Seems they've had a 6% tariff on squid they export for calamari which accounts for half of all exports, and a 42% tariff on their lamb. They have half a million sheep and only around 3,000 residents. Maybe John Redwood will suggest they consume it all themselves?

    Yes int Brexit great?
    71 pages of documentation for 1 consignment of exported fish
    All negotiated for and agreed to by the Chief of Calamities and his bunch of chronic cronies

    https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-55887043

    But at least Cadbury's has managed to avoid creating any jobs-phew!

    Go on then , you’ve seen the replies to this. Now Tell us in your opinion why it’s particularly great news other than perhaps safeguarding existing jobs, although they’re not shouting this from the rooftops, so maybe not.

    We could have stayed and will somebody own EU vaccine rollout. Maybe we could have pushed the EU to do it quicker as well and swapped our vaccine for their vials.
