yorkshire tea/ pg tips, supports BLM

disavowing some far right weirdo that tweeted them is good imo

I drink Assam tea. PG tips is God awful.

Two more businesses that have completely lost the plot, and can expect to lose many customers for their ludicrous attempts to appear 'Woke".

Yorkshire tea is the one that Rishi Sunak promoted. The next day, twitter followers were urging folks to boycott it. The day after that Tesco were selling it for about 50p a box. I bet seven boxes at the time, it was delicious.

There is a groundswell of support for Yorkshire Gold is it called on the forum. I am pretty sure of it.

so if we dont support BLM we are not to drink their tea ?? is that what theyre saying ?arent we allowed to have our own opinions anymore ?

YTP
YOIRKSHIRE TEA PARTY

I prefer coffee.....with milk!

PG Tips overcompensating having built a business using a now 'racist' advertising line
These shyte hawks are out to save their companies they don't give 2 fcks about racism it's so blatant

That's Chimpanzeeism

You dirty dawg....doh!

Have PG Tips apologised yet for their past use of chimpanzees in their adverts?

Like a trout!

You buys are two of my favourites. I have a mind to write to the Palace demanding you get gongs for fighting racism!

C'mon what about malteser's stereotyping young black men with shaved heads!

Alun

I don't think the chimps want a fecking apology! They weren't even bothered about the money!

Calm down dear!

Not sure about what porn you are watching Denzil but how about a

Hands Up, Don't shoot

You got me good massa!

Another example why for business silence is golden in today's lost Britain

Is that what you do all day Denzil?

I am so sorry!

I am off for a bike ride.

A simple gotcha but I'm gonna git you sucka will suffice.

Did you laugh at all? Even platini laughed, not sure if he was laughing at me for being so stupid but at least he laughed. We should all laugh a little more and search for dumb internet trolls a little less. God bless you.

you too mac, get a life!

Let's not fall out again baby xx

Keep out the no go zones WD

There are no No Go Zones for an Englishman Denzil, a real one that is!

Solidaritea !

That's the reason y'all Americans drink coffee ,are you going to the party?
Going to the virtue signal party.

What's Danny Baker got to say about pg tips?

That's the reason y'all Americans drink coffee ,are you going to the party?

You do know the Boston Tea Party was in Massachussets not Lincolnshire?

Wow who needs a Sat nav when whisperingbobs here.

I sometimes buy Yorkshire tea, no longer. Business should beware of alienating existing customers, Ratner knows.

good business from Yorkshire ....

brand new BAME customers and liberals on board

plus keeping everyone else on board who like the product ...

no bonehead  will ditch yorkshire if it's their favourite brew

winners all round  ...more companies to follow this lead i bet

PGTips horrendous ,they will lose customers anyway

Twinings English breakfast is my fav tea. I take Yokshire tea when I'm contracting for a firm, their lads steal everything.

Zulu wiped from wokeflix

I'll buy their product, drink it and then tell the sad pathetic cants to grow a pair and go and get sh*gged

This is insane what's happening really is

But the question everyone needs to be asking is... Who are these people "calling for" this?

It ain't the blacks that's for damn sure, and if I was black I'd be very careful about following the whites who are shouting for this

Boycott the brand
Black people don't drink tea. They don't know how to work the teabag
Thus Yorkshire tea will have it's Ratner moment
Good riddance

Some top virtue signalling.


Boycotting a teabag. What a time to be alive. And they say there are no snowflakes in June.

I ain't boycotting it

In fact it'll make me nick an extra box when out shoplifting

Its a non-violent way of protesting porcy
Perhaps if we kill an animal or two, you might be impressed?

Did this not come from some ickle Tommy telling YT he was proud they hadn't backed BLM (And ergo were on his side), and so they just replied that actually y'know...


If it wasn't for that pocket rocket your tea bags would still be on the shelf.

Just enjoying someone having a meltdown about a teabag. Scenes.

Blacks are very distrustful of whites who feel outrage on their behalf.
They will turn on those kents before a proud white man, imo

Lets hope so it's a shameful situation

White married couple sitting in their white suburban yard with the little poodle running round whilst the kid sleeps in the cot, getting outraged about a black man?

Yeah I'd be getting suspicious of their motives as well

chin up lads

tbf i'd like to know exactly in the UK is there racism (not racists = they exist for sure ,but they're general uneducated, lower working class old men with a bit of a grumpy attitude)  ...blacks i know of have never mentioned racism generally 

i'd be interested to hear of a few examples .

I know USA does have a real problem on the other hand

I must confess to not having seen the ad, but I will not buy goods from anyone who thinks they have the right to preach at the general public.

Yes!

I think all they're saying is they don't want racists buying their tea ..they're not preaching

If i don't support BLM does that mean I'm a racist?

no, but if you are commending a brand publicly for NOT supporting a cause then that might suggest that you are

None of the companies should be getting involved in societal issues though

Same with sport, they should not be getting used in this political arena but they are

if you're like most people in the UK ,who are not racist but at the same time couldn't give a monkeys chuff about BLM  then  you aren't going to comment either way  ...but by making a statement like that woman did didn't look good  ...Yorkshire did well to put her in her place.

well to be fair sonts it shows very good business on their part ...they will gain a lot from that move

I'll be nicking a box from my coop tomorrow in protest

ha ha ...Yorkshire will still profit ...Co-op will be the net losers

it's a very good brand ...i couldn't buy any other bagged tea

More new cases today than a week ago, and almost as many deaths. But it's all about statues at the moment, and that suits the Goverment fine.

There could 1000 deaths a day and 3000 cases

The virus is no longer being used, but might get used again down the line

They are reopening pubs early so that tells you something

I miss the old pubs

Storm in a Tea cup. Now we all know Dobbin has not died the outrage has moved on to a tea bag.

What a sad bunch of loons.

Good news horses are FAR MORE important than black criminals

The thing is where's this "police brutality" come from in the UK?

No mention of it for years and then boom out of nowhere police are brutal and kill people

Even though the same people calling it that put out "data" yesterday showing its not even bad as they tried to strengthen their USA narrative

You could not make it up... again!!

When are you people going to come out if your dark rooms?

Protect the statues!

Fight fir your tea bags

There's a movement starting online. Google teaching to find out just what's happening.

sol campbell,ashley cole  v Lampard.gerrared, getting top jobs in fooitball,is an argument put forward by some

Let's hope that YT have made sure that the people who have been collecting their tea-leaves
have been paid fairly and treated well. Kenyan and Sri Lankan lives matter too
But they knew that of course.

and if you dont, dont buy their product

This isn't exactly what they are saying. They are just using the events to gain more exposure. Too bad it hurt existing customers' feelings but if they come out with a bigger profit thanks to this then they don't give a rats ass about your feelings. You should just enjoy the tea.

It's been done for years. Remember Greggs with their veggie sausage rolls last year.


The same whoppers get triggered by it every time and give them acres of free publicity. Piece of piss.

If you think that sales of YT will increase because of this detraveller, I advise you don't apply for a job in marketing mate

almost had to think Piers was actually being paid by Greggs for all that attention last year. but more concerningly, there were people that think expanding your product range to an evergrowing group was being woke

PG have just announced the discontinuation of PG tips' Pyramid tea bags due to their links with slavery

Of course they have dear

Is the vicar coming to tea?

Indeed.

Free publicity which informs consumers that a business has taken leave of its senses, and has become a national laughing-stock.

Free publicity which makes the business like cringeworthy and an embarrassment to be associated with.

Free publicity which crucially costs the virtue-signalling business big bucks and loses them once-loyal customers.

And all for the sake of trying to look 'woke'. LOLOL.

How Gillette must even now be scratching their little brains wondering why on earth they tried to be 'woke', with insane adverts that insulted their core customers, and resulted in a massive financial hit for P&G.

Let's all hope that the opportunity for Gillette (and other idiots) to call discerning lost customers "snowflakes" will make up for the financial damage.

Any business (and 'woke' cretins everywhere) aligning themselves to the 'Black Lives Matter' group is demonstrating pitiful judgement.

^ chief snowflake signs in before likely darting off to other threads to talk about how libs are so easily upset these days

Taken leaf of their senses

Did the Chimps get an apology?

I do love a bit of faux outrage over..........tea!

if anything Yorkshire tea probably caters more for the wokers more than the workers in the first place so doubt they will be alienating their core customers ...Gillete on the other hand would be a bad move

I might be wrong but hopping onto woke culture is the norm today and with the way things stand, such things are going to p1ss many off big time. But companies still do it. Must be getting something out of it.

Maybe the halal market is analogous. Companies strive to get the halal label on their products to include a small(for now) minority. Do you think they'd do it if the halal label reduced their revenues because the non halal folk got offended?

I wouldn't’ get offended but I wouldn’t buy halal if I had the choice
