Blame The German Owners:
We have supported our local milkman over many years; first of all it was Express Dairy; hence the name "Express Way, Newbury". Then they were taken over by Unigate, and latterly the German company Muller aka "Milk & More". They have just reverted to glass bottles again. The papers have indicated that milkmen are seeing an upturn in new customers, but after all this time, they're about to lose me. Just had slip with our delivery today (we have just 3 a week), that milk has gone up in price by 4p a pint. Not a way to encourage customers, by further widening price with retailers. |

Milk should be at least thirty pence a litre more than it is now, and all of the increase should go to the producers.

QUOTE (Turin Machine @ Nov 10 2019, 11:23 AM)  Milk should be at least thirty pence a litre more than it is now, and all of the increase should go to the producers. Hear hear! Wouldn't make any noticeable difference to the weekly shopping bill but would guarantee the future of the dairy industry in this country. -------------------- Si non prius succederent.......... relinquere
