That this House supports the Campaign for Real Ale's (CAMRA) quest to save Leeds Tetley's Brewery from closure by Carlsberg Tetley; notes that Tetley's ales have been brewed in Leeds for 187 years and that it is an iconic Leeds brand; deplores the potential loss of 170 jobs should the Leeds Brewery be closed; believes that any brand claiming to be a Leeds beer must be brewed in Leeds, using water from Leeds, with a Leeds workforce; and calls on Carlsberg Tetley to continue brewing Tetley's ales in Leeds, welcomes Leeds City Council's motion supporting the CAMRA campaign in calling for a local and national campaign to persuade Carlsberg Tetley to save the Leeds Brewery.
This motion has been signed by a total of 37 MPs.
