Cyclone Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 Cyclone and Makapaka are just trolling this thread for a laugh. No, I just don't see what the big fuss is. Simply don't buy the item, or don't shop there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you see no issue with someone going 150mph on the motorway, as long as they dont hurt anyone or damage anything? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cgksheff Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 No he said there is "no English language" at all. I can read English. Whilst it is ambiguous, the post emphasises the lack of instructions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmmaJones76 Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 In my opinion, the first sentence of his post before the comma clarifies he is talking about the entire packaging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it would be fine to say to someone just go to the next shop if there was a sign in the window saying "no blacks, no Irish" then...? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you totally,as a type 1 diabetic i need to know exactly what i am buying and the carbohydrate content of said item.There is a petition on the Diabetes uk website to try and make the government make it law that foods sold in the Uk must show the full nutritional content.

No - that would be racism. ---------- Post added 20-04-2018 at 23:00 ---------- Would you see no issue with someone going 150mph on the motorway, as long as they dont hurt anyone or damage anything? No - that would be speeding recklessly and they would have a chance of killing someone through their own reckless actions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Arctor Posted April 20, 2018 Share Posted April 20, 2018 It's not "one", go into the majority of foreign food supermarkets and you will find imported products with no english labelling on them. I'm not sure this is true. I go into Tai Sun and Yi-Mart regularly and everything I've ever bought has an English label on it, which as I understand it is put on by the importer, not the store. So which supermarket is it that is importing non-labelled products? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obelix Posted April 21, 2018 Share Posted April 21, 2018 No - that would be racism.. Yes it would. Contrary to the Equality Act 2010 because race is a protected characteristic. The exact same identical section of law also classifies medical issues like food allergies as being a protected characteristic. So that's why it's illegal to not label food in English.
