Unless they are covering the packaging in trans flag colours

They do these for LGBT+ awareness 😒

Are they specifically for pride or funds towards LGBT? I have seen these for years, my daughter has one on occasion and I've never believed it to be anything other than advertising towards kids who are unicorn mad? The colours aren't right for the pride flag? And besides, I'll always be ok with our LGB friends 💪🏻

Ah you've missed the mark here I think op.

Let's just take a minute to remember we aren't anti trans, we aren't anti trans inclusivity, we aren't against trans awareness... it's when it begins to encroach on womens spaces and rights that we get upset... remember? Let's not make ourselves look like bigots.

Unless they are covering the packaging in trans flag colours, excluding women from the work place, insisting on "gender neutral" bathrooms or telling us trans cakes are women, I think we're good to let this one slide.

The trifles our Mam made contained sliced up Swiss Roll. So those trifles did actually have an internal essence of cake.

and you probably had a gender neutral toilet in the house

A trifle is definitely not a cake.

Butteryflakycrust83 · 20/06/2022 16:54

Do you not think thats going a trifle too far?

Do I need to know where everyone has a wee before I purchase anything anymore?

onionandcheese · 20/06/2022 16:41

Is there any way we can get hold of Premier Foods staff toilet policy?

MenopausalMe · 20/06/2022 16:26

I don’t see a problem, I have plenty of products on my boycott list but it’s down to their attitude to women and women’s rights. I’m not against trans rights I’m against erosion of women’s rights and against treating safeguarding as personal affront/accusation as opposed to something everyone has to do

Getupandsitdown · 20/06/2022 16:04

At least we still have Tunnock’s, I hope they don't go woke!

I can't see that happening, they ran this advert only a few years ago

quiteathome · 20/06/2022 14:55

It sounds like it is the whole of Premier foods, not just Me Kipling. They own a lot of brands, and also make own label products for a lot of supermarkets. You may end up boycotting a lit of foods.

Overall I don't really see any issues with this. We don't really know what they are planning. And if someone dies transition they will need support.

I like the sound of their menopause support.

Leaving aside political issues, Mr Kipling is just ultra-processed shite in colourful packaging. It's not really food. You may as well just suck a bag of sugar.

I've just been for a 12k run. That's sounding sooo good right now.

Igmum · 20/06/2022 13:59

In all fairness they don't seem to be curtailing women's spaces, they are not saying TWAW and they are actively providing menopause leave. I have no objection to this. Looks like decent HR policies to me and good luck to them. I'm as GC as the next viper but this genuinely doesn't seem to trample on women's rights or inappropriately medicalise children.

Nobody has yet mentioned exceedingly bad takes.

Brilliant 🤣

Mr Kilpin was lost to me when they made their Battenburg's inclusive of 'almond flavoured paste' instead of Marzipan.

I don't see anything to complain about. Its "offered" not compulsory. A simple "no thanks" would suffice.

EmbarrassingHadrosaurus · 20/06/2022 13:01

OP, it might be helpful if you lay out your concerns.

Characterisations such as "woke mob" are not useful.

Applesandroses · 20/06/2022 12:59

complain about what?
