Campaign to ‘boycott Pret’ over plan to expand into occupied Palestine
Sandwich shop chain Pret a Manger is facing a possible nationwide boycott after it announced a plan to expand into occupied Palestine – to serve Israeli customers who have settled there.
The following sums up the response from disillusioned customers:
This breaks my heart.
I am a big Pret fan. They do the best jambon-beurre sandwiches this side of the channel.
Still. Needs must when the devil drives… https://t.co/m7RLUvmR1V— CrémantCommunarde #BeAPeacemonger ☮️ (@0Calamity) December 14, 2023
Boycotting is the only way to go – once these profit seeking companies realise that because of their greed they're going to lose far more than they gain they close down their businesses pretty quickly in the country causing the boycott. https://t.co/jrDLrcDU4R

This Writer doesn’t habitually patronise Pret anyway – I live in a remote part of Wales where that franchise has not bothered to seek a foothold.
But I support the boycott. These firms need to understand there are consequences for supporting countries that commit genocide.

Don’t worry, @ cremantcommunarde
…They won’t be selling many jambon-beurres in palestine😋
Joking apart, what a bunch of slimeballs the pret lot are. May all their premises become rat-infested, like their board.
Where’s the petition?
It’s not so much a petition as making a pledge to boycott Pret if it opens stores in Israel. The address was in the image but I’ll put it here too: https://www.foa.org.uk/campaign/pretapartheid
