Brexit Marmite Row, Tesco and Unilever Price Dispute
A public dispute between Tesco and Unilever over the price of Marmite is characterized by the hosts as a "PR move" to frighten British citizens about the consequences of Brexit. Unilever sought to raise prices by 10% due to the falling value of the pound, leading Tesco to briefly pull products from its online store. The hosts believe this is part of a media campaign to force a "do-over" vote on EU membership.
