Yes, I too show religious fealty to [regional brand]. Those Americans with their corporate sanewashing and bombardment of adverts are silly but I'm of course superior because my marketing for [brand] is more sophisticated.

This is a fucking advert for a company that purchases raw materials cheap from ex colonies, shoves them in a bag, and sells it to you for silly prices with the gall to say it's from Yorkshire. Fuck these guys.

Yeah they should only sell tea grown in the the UK. Best we can manage around here is an awful lot of weed.

At least Yorkshire Weed wouldn't be a lie and it wouldn't involve exploitation from our colonial past.

Pretty sure that the drug manufacturer and distribution involves a certain amount of exploitation
