    O/T Unilever

    Threatening to pull advertising off social media if they don't clean up their act. Apparently they spend £7.1bn on advertising all over the world.

    How bad is social media? What is it doing so wrong that a company the size of Unilever is going to stop using it? Can social media clean up it's act? Afterall it's just a platform for us to communicate isn't it.

    Will social media ever be tamed? Is it too late?

    Don't think I'm qualified to answer that Frog, not like you youngsters.

    Is that the same Unilever that closed the mustard factory in Norwich ?

    Lets just say if this site pitched Unilever for advertising it will struggle.

    Unilever put "Refugees Welcome" on one of their Ben and Jerrys ice cream flavours.

    Evidently they think virtue signalling is profitable, we'll see.

    Unilever, have very ethical approach to business and are considered leaders in developing sustainable products in an ethical way.
    This move is consistent with their ethics and brand development and demonstrates that businesses are starting to understand that they have a fundamental role to play in how society works. The business case is clear but it will play out over the longer term.

    I did post something on here about due regard for environment in football. Environment is also a very strong driver with Unilever and is also a part of their sustainability objectives (I didn’t go down too well TBH) which is why companies like Unilever need to show strong leadership in issues like this.
    PS with governments around the world more concerned with populist politics the role played by the likes of Unilevers, M & S, Interserve, Skanska et al are increasingly becoming more important to preserve the fabric of society.

    "Genuine Refugees Welcome" or "Economic Migrant Chancers Not Welcome" would have been my preferred message.

    This bloke is increasingly getting more rabid by the day...

    Now, we all know there's issues with immigration and have seen effects both good and bad for the region and indeed the country, and that the issue is in urgent need of proper, sensible attention from all sides of the argument, but to continually jump onto ANY topic with the same, inaccurate bullshine is quite frankly pathetic.
