Why this petition matters

Started by ALAN IVES

In the last few days and weeks I have bought items on-line from Amazon, John Lewis & others, even selecting British Branded names, only to find that the products were actually made in and imported from elsewhere such as China, Vietnam, USA etc. 

If you wish to buy "UK made" it should be EASY for customers to identify & confirm the place of manufacture, & simple for retailers to show customers, by ensuring all products are "flagged" by their country of origin

Legislation is required to ensure all products sold in-store or on-line show the flag of the country of origin of manufacture.

For those of us who wish to help our own economy recover by buying from the UK, this should be made more easy.

The opportunity to make here in the UK will also be more identifiable when the range of imported products can be more easily seen.

This is a hugely important issue for customer choice, and UK manufacture.
