It seems production costs in the Uk are getting out of hand....


They better not change the taste of "Broon sauce"

Yeah, but did you know that HP stands for Houses of Parliament? I certainly didn't, shows how much notice I take of the picture on the bottle.

Brendan Hughes

"Union leaders are to meet bosses at US company Heinz over its decision to move production of its famous HP sauce from Birmingham to Holland."


It's all part of the EU gravy train.

Surely it'll turn white, then They'll remove the B and replace with M, R will go and an A will appear. Then after some scrutiny the O will be dropped in lieu of a Y, in haste they'll remove the W and insert an O. For good measure and to at least keep some of it's origial character the N will remain. An extra N will be added to double the character enhancement. Then being able to add vale for money due to reduced labour costs they'll add an A-I-S-E.

Voila Dutch Brown Sauce = Mayonnaise


Can't wait

I bet pensions has something to do with it.

As another posts goes over 7,000 jobs have gone in the last 24hrs including TVR

Need to organise a product boycott.

Which isn't that stupid really. Part of buying HP is that it is English. I don't want British Gouda or Portuguese chocolate.
