Motion text
That this House condemns the decision by Carlsberg to close the Tetley's Leeds Brewery and transfer brewing of Tetley's cask ales to Wolverhampton and Tetley's Smoothflow to Tadcaster; notes that Tetley's ales have been brewed in Leeds for 187 years and that Tetley's is an iconic Leeds brand; believes that this is a decision made in the interests of corporate greed with no regard for Tetley's heritage as a famous Leeds beer; deplores the potential loss of 170 jobs from the Leeds Brewery; further believes that Carlsberg has betrayed Tetley's and Leeds; and calls on the people of Leeds to show how they feel about the decision and boycott Carlsberg lager.
