Here is the official response from United Biscuits;

Dear Mr. -------

Thank you for your e-mail regarding the Union flag in the Scotland site.

Despite recent press allegations United Biscuits can categorically confirm that it has not banned the union flag from any of its sites. At Tollcross, in line with all other factories in the UK, celebratory decorations are on display which include the union flag.

The initial Tollcross canteen decorations did include some union flags which resulted in complaints from some employees. Given the recent well publicised football sectarian tensions in Glasgow, with the union flag linked with one particular team, the management of our Glasgow factory chose a more neutral theme for their canteen decorations featuring purple bunting and pictures of the happy couple. Their aim was to ensure that all employees could wholeheartedly join in the wedding celebrations without any football associations. However this change resulted in complaints from a different group of employees and so union flags will remain as part of the decorations.

McVitie's is a proud British brand and has just launched a promotion featuring the union flag on a number of its products to highlight the fact that it sources its wheat from the UK.

Kind regards,
Sue Gibson
Consumer Services Co-ordinator

My suggestion is to put these narrow minded fcukwits in a shed & let them kick 7 shades of shoite out of each other. With attitudes like that, they would be best employed with a care in the community work scheme.

They're all a bunch of dirty papish bastrds and/or stinking orange hun anyway.

Who'd miss 'em?
