This was spotted by a friend today in her local morrisons.
Same PR as Tesco?Its OK,british lamb is out of season.
I usually make do with NZ, never knew you could get Australian
well?did you challenge manager
Read the sign carefully "all M branded fresh meat is 100% British" Obviously the product immediately above it isn't "M" branded.
The simple truth is that all the supermarkets even the sainted Waitrose will pull any stunt they think they can get away with.
I've heard mugs (mother in law included) say "All Morrisons meat is British they've got their own abbatoir" which just goes to show that people do listen to the overpaid celebs they get to appear on their adverts. In reality, if its fresh but not their own brand, frozen, or in a ready meal they will buy it wherever in the World they can get the cheapest quote.

Are they saying it isnt fresh as well?!
Well being a great believer of conspiracy theories ..... I don't think for 1 minute this imported lamb is any cheaper than uk produce, it's sold at a substantial loss in order to depress the home market , and it seems to be working perfectly .
And consequently low lamb prices are affecting the beef job, the chaps who bought yearling stores for thick end of a grand last year will be getting squeaky bum syndrome .
Lets all go on strike until the new year , we have legitimate reasons, if they wish to ship it in let them ship it all in,they can't and they have no wish to, it's a game of brinkmanship
In fact lets send a ship load to Australia ourselves
WE MUST START MARKETING OUR PRODUCE BETTER , this situation whereby price is dictated by the supermarkets is unsustainable for US
