I'd like you to sign a petition, please.

The reasons are here.

The petition is here.

Thank you.

No, it should come up with some info and a page to fill in. How odd it doesn't work for you. Are you on dial-up?

Oh blimey Hunkermunker. I don't know. I have Windows XP and an okay pc. And broadband.

hunkermunker · 19/05/2007 22:45

That's odd then.

How about this one? There's a link to the petition on it

OP posts:
NKF · 19/05/2007 22:46

That's the one I get. And I click on the 'slick to sign the petition here' or words to that effect. The screen sort of flickers (stop me if I'm getting too technical) and then it stays the same.

NKF · 19/05/2007 22:47

The click to sign not slick to sign. Sorry.

hunkermunker · 19/05/2007 22:47

There's some company responses here too

Am inappropriately PMSL at this bit of Nestle's letter:

the allegation about direct marketing to mothers through the advertising firm OgilvyOne's marketing campaign was brought up in 1999 [Baby Milk Action comment: This past malpractice was not referred to, but good of Nestlé to remind people]

You can scroll down the page to the petition - it's just a bit further down. If you can open the first link, you can sign it, I hope!

id like to find a way to donate to the lovely midwife in the 3rd or 4th clip who refused to take ribes and promoted bf'ing anyway to help her spread her wonderful self around a bit more...
signed btw.
also dont buy anything nestle.

i saw a thing on telly once where nestle offered nelson mandela a million bucks for his foundation or something and he told them to get fucked. i figured if they were bad enough for him to do that, id betterboycott them too. (was V vaguely aware of formula milk propaganda thing)

Signed & bumped

I have been boycotting the Nestle empire for a long time and I tell almost everyone I meet all about it and they too end up boycotting the EVIL corporation.

Their products are everywhere my DH is from Mauritius and we went on holiday there last year almost all of the infant formula milk is by them. DS was 1.5 and I had wanted to give him formula when we were there as wasn't sure on the milk but in the end i opted for lovely UHT! which was imported from Oz no way was i feeding my precious baby that SHIT!

electra · 20/05/2007 00:25

I've signed

twinsetandpearls · 20/05/2007 00:33

done and have also rechecked the list of nestle interests as although we boycott the it is difficult.

I didn't realise that the Body Shop had links with nestle as although I knew they had been biught ouy I hadn't put two and two together

NappiesGalore · 20/05/2007 00:45

whaaaaaat?

ok, maybe i need to find this list of which you are all speaking...

sweetas · 20/05/2007 01:06

I have just bought some fantastic products from the babymilk website

a give nestle the boot t.shirt

a top that says 'sucked' on the boob part

a top for my DD that say 'little mothersucker'

100 purse size UK nestle product cards

a give nestle the boot car sticker

and envelope labels that say

"Nestlé increases profits by promoting artificial infant feeding in violation of the World Health Assembly's marketing code. Breastfeeding is the best start in life for a child and where there is poverty or unsafe water, it is a life saver. Every 30 seconds a baby dies because it was not breastfed."

THE PLAN IS TO WEAR THE T.SHIRT PPL APPROACH ME AND I CAN TELL THEM ALL ABOUT IT AND GIVE THEM THEM A PRODUCT CARD ASWELL AS ANYONE I HAVE TO WRTIE TO WILL GET THE ENVELOPE LABEL - HOPEFULLY THIS WILL SPREAD THE WORD A BIT MORE

twinsetandpearls · 20/05/2007 02:22

didn't see the cards, I might order some of those.
