Why are you bringing HBC into this again? I'm not part of HBC, and as far as I'm aware all they have done is agree to buy Fairtrade coffee themselves and until you can find a local coffee plantation then I don't exactly see the harm in it. Yes, they should be investing in the Borough wherever possible I really don't see where that has come into question.

I think that's all that I was asking in the first place but unless someone lets people know about these things nothing happens. I posted a thread that I thought was a simple thread promoting the odd use of some Fairtrade items and to be honest I thought it was a relatively straightforward thing that wouldn't cause such a fuss.

So why have you spent the last hour arguing with me when you buy the stuff yourself anyway?
