Tommy Robinson’s Merch Company Will Be Dissolved Following Bangladesh Backlash

Yesterday we wrote about how Tommy Robinson’s ‘patriotic’ United the Kingdom clothing line was being made by Muslims in Bangladesh, and today, the company behind the merchandise has announced that it will be dissolved. Coincidence?

Companies House shows Nation Wear Limited, who sell the range of ‘patriotic’ t-shirts, caps and key rings, will be ‘dissolved via compulsory strike-off’.

This means the company has been forcibly removed from the official register and will no longer exist as of today (Tuesday, October 7).

However, the website still appears to be taking orders for Union Jack-emblazoned bucket hats and polo shorts, so maybe they’ve got until the end of the day?

Indeed, the label on the products literally says ‘Made in Bangladesh’…

The manufacturer is a Belgian company called Stanley/Stella which have 11 suppliers based in Bangladesh and one located in China, according to a Fair Wear audit last year.

According to the foundation’s report, the Brussels-based company pays its Bangladeshi workers the equivalent of 36p per hour and has been previously accused of running sweatshops.

Of course, clothing and merchandise manufactured abroad in countries like Bangladesh, Pakistan, China and Vietnam is a lot more profitable because the cost of labour is so low, but can you really ask people to ‘buy British’ if your items aren’t made in Britain?

Furthermore, is there anyone out there who wouldn’t be completely embarrassed to be wearing this stuff? Sorry Tommy, but I don’t think your followers will be ditching their Stone Island gear any time soon.
