"Let's remember we're all human and have the same rights to life regardless of the country we happen to have been born in."But Home Office insiders said Ms Patel would not be deterred from tackling the crisis.

Have they removed weed killer from their product, stopped exploiting migrant workers and started paying their taxes yet?

Ben & Jerry make junk food ice cream to make children obese and reduce the life span of others.

Fully owned by Unilever, one of the largest manufacturers in the world. Check out their record on animal testing, exploiting Asian labour, tax avoidance and destroying Palm Forests.

Cynical PR play by an ice cream brand owned by Unilever and you go for it, hook, line and sinker!!

Never eat the stuff, but if I did, I wouldn't anymore. Absolute lunacy opening our borders!

Let's hope you dont need any government hand out. Can't see them giving you shit..

our media

Boycott

They didn't receive a 'chilly' response at all, they received a childish response that deflected the real situation. Whoever authorised the response is trash

Stick to making junk food and promoting obesity and keep your nose out of political issues that don’t concern you. Never buying your overpriced overrated products again.

And so the government press distraction from their covid incompetence that killed 10,000.

Hope they go bust the twats 🤡🤡🤡

Stick to making ice cream, mind you they not even good at that these days when you can get the supermarket equivalent!

I can’t believe their statement got something like 85 thousand likes. Who are these people. Do they put on their own likes.

A non-indigenous British MP larping as a badass conservative vs. two American billionaire Jews who think god knows who should be let into a country they have no stake in. wewereneverasked

Tin pot company owned by unilever.

Wait till all the dingy invaders realise their is no better life here. 4 million unemployed

I don’t like their fattening shitty ice cream. And who the fuck are they anyway 😡

And so it should have done, benandjerrysUK needs to stay out of UK politics, they are an absolute disgraceful ice cream maker.

Princess Diana love walls and cartdoor ice cream.

The only real ice cream is Italian ice cream!

SueTayl14911306 I will NEVER again buy this brand. Overpriced shit anyway.

I hope they go bust now sticktosellingicecream

If it is not 'PRETTY then it is PfATAL.

Usually, they come out with a limited time flavor, whose name is somewhat snarky. Patelling the Channel, for example. Ben and Jerry sold it to Unilever in 2000, so any comments are really from that company. The plant is fun to tour. There is a cemetery for retired flavors.

More lefties virtue signalling!

Yeah because the Home Secretary is so worried about what an expensive ice cream brand thinks. Yeah there fleeing war,poverty and torture,thats to me isnt the issue its the fact there travelling through countries they can claim asylum in and yet continue onto the UK.

I think you know where you can stick your ice cream!!

The most middle class ice cream ever. And it’s shite.

The same Ben and Jerry's who had a case brought against them by the migrant workers they employed, who paid a pittance? Oh the irony.

Well done benandjerrysUK Help rid the UK of these cockroaches!

This is the same company who supported the CHAD/CHOP autonomous zone. They couldn't get more despicable if they tried.

A brand founded by Sodomites isn’t exactly in a position to lecture anyone else on ethics and what’s right.

Even a mention on HaveIGotNewsForYou is a victory for b&j, any publicity is good publicity

B&J are communists. It’s well known.

Chocolate Ice-cream? An estimated 2 million children harvest most of the world's cocoa. Unilever's Modern Slavery Statement 2020 suggests more than a third, 19,806 of its 55,938 global suppliers are 'high risk'.

They need to stick to making ice cream 🙄

benandjerrysUK your ice cream isn’t that great that irl miss it. Grossly overpriced anyway. Byeeee✋

Really glad I bought another brand of ice cream yesterday.

‘Overpriced junk food’ 😂 Brilliant pritipatel That pretty much sums up benandjerrys... haagendazsuk is far superior 👍

Their opinions are truly like their products: Overpriced

Woke company, who abuses Cows, underpays staff to make overated, overpriced junk food, going to lecture the public, on morals.. okay woke

Modern day slave owners using slave labour and 90% of their ice cream is full of poisonous Glysophate which is found in weed killer

With their track record I don’t think they should be commenting about immigrants.

Scum ice cream company.

They are owned be Unilever. If you know anything about that company and how they treat and exploit people around the world, it all becomes a bit hypocritical.

You lot really are in the gutter today.

Buy British ... support your independent British ice cream makers and send this junk packing!

Ice cream ,bad enough with celebrity’s.

BoycottBenAndJerrys BoycottbenandjerrysUK

The same ben and Jerry's that use child labour for their ingredients?

An Ice Cream Company lecturing the UK Home Office rofl. Ben & Jerry's is well know for it woke outrage in the USA which is their choice. Like my choice to avoid purchasing their products, don't get upset or rage about their opinion just reply with your wallet simply & effective.

Ice cream and Priti Patel,mmmm what a night! 😂

BREXSHIT IS THE BIGGEST OVERPRICED JUNK!

Ben and Jerrys want more migrants (escaping from war-torn France) so they can exploit them and pay minimum wage. They have history!
