You would think a dairy company would know the difference between male and female.

Grin ISWYM.

Even I know not to attempt to milk a bull.

How can a doctor spout this sort of stuff and not get struck off?

Wotcha Ime, it is women who do the shopping - not sexist at all, just my observation. based of years of observation both in my part of the UK and abroad, it was and is mostly women. I didn't say mums, I said women.

I don't tend to allow dh in the supermarket as I end up with stuff I don't want.

I don't think it's relevant what he says his 'profession' is. He's just another man wanting to shut uppity women up. There's millions of them in the world and the funny thing is, women still keep thinking and speaking for themselves.
Only companies with no understanding of demographics would act on his 'complaints' especially if they realise MRAs and TRAs post inflammatory comments so they can screenshot them and pretend they're from MN users. Welcome to the new misogyny - same as the old one.

Why would he get struck off for saying he doesn’t like an Internet forum?

You'd have thought so, wouldn't you

It is unbloodybelievable. What crass timing. What twisted priorities....

Furthermore atm, as he is a diabetic, and approaching 60, I am doing all the shopping, as I don't want him to get COVID, so I am going.

Wow - sorry, but sexist much?!
In this day and age it's not just mums who do the shopping!

It is still women who do the food shopping in the majority of households.

I’ve just started buying Cravendale because it lasts longer than ordinary milk. I hope Arla don’t bend to this pressure because freezing milk is a pita and I don’t want to go back to doing that, but I will if they pay one iota of attention to this woman-hating twonk.

Why would he get struck off for saying he doesn’t like an Internet forum?

Maybe attempts at business sabotage are attracting more complaints and being taken more seriously as we dive into recession?

Maybe he did something else, completely unrelated that got him suspended.

I won’t pretend to care which it was that bit him.

Might buy try that Bubble yoghurt and add some Cravendale to my trolley next time I’m shopping 👏

I have some Cravendale milk in my online basket. Seems a good shout when it is harder to get food etc when you want it. I will continue to buy as long as they don't give in to this ridiculous bullying. What other Arla products do people recommend?

I stopped buying Flora when they went down this anti-women route and I haven't been back

He’s also one of the pervy ‘doctors’ that doesn’t see anything wrong with 12 year old child brides. He makes me shudder.

Doctor's are facists too!

Just because they wear a white coat doesn't mean they don't hate women (Mumsnet), and aren't racists etc.

He's shown us who is is now, so let's not forget who he is.

Life long Anchor butter user here. It's been a British product for years and British farmers need our support.

I shall clap for NHS workers, care and key workers tonight with one weasly exception.
