Nestle clarification

The Socialist Party received the attached letter from Nestlé complaining about the Socialist Party’s use of their copyrighted logo (for which we did not seek their permission) on our poster concerning the issue of workers’ rights. The use of the logo and that of other high profile multinationals to replace the stars on the EU flag was designed to convey our view that the EU is run primarily in the interests of the multinational corporations. However, as can be seen from the Nestlé letter, they fear that the appearance of their logo conveys the notion that the Socialist Party’s No to Lisbon campaign is supported by Nestlé! The Socialist Party is more than happy to clarify publically to anybody who thinks otherwise from viewing the poster that Nestlé do not support the objectives of the Socialist Party.

European Elections: Get active in campaign to elect Paul Murphy MEP

These elections come at an important time. Every time we turn on the TV or read the papers we will see the government and many of their friends in the right wing press trumpeting a “recovery” in the economy. However, where is the recovery for working people who are suffering under viscous neo-liberal austerity policies? Emigration is at record levels, our public services are at breaking point, despite the smoke and mirrors from the Labour Party social welfare is being slashed, there is a housing crisis with soaring rents and house prices, unemployment is high and the only jobs available are low paid with yellow pack conditions.
