    A French conglomerate licences one of their many brand names to a English crisp company – quelle histoire !

    I little reminder here folks (sorry for the early morning history lesson) but the modern idea of Guinness being some kinda stalwart of the upkeep of all things culturally Irish is actually in reality a complete fallacy. The Guinness family were as British in their mind set and as Unionist as they come. How Guinness itself became such an Irish entity around the world, when in actual fact it stood for all things un-Irish, is beyond explanation. Remember you only got a job in the brewery if A) you were a Dub and B) you were an ex member of the British Military. Pretty much everything a Republican or Irish Freeman would have stood against and fought to expel and the best reason in the world for culchies to just add it to their list of reasons to hate heroin smoking, skanger knacker bleedin dubs. The irony is never lost on me. So anyway, no it wasn’t for this, it was for them :-)

      Nice to see how you pick out “facts” but then don’t give the whole fact. Ex British army, your nearly correct. Guinness gave jobs to IRISH men who fought in the war, yes for the British but only because or government would not get involved. These men fought for Ireland albeit in a British regiment. And our scum government then treated them like lepers when they returned home. Guinness literally stopped these men and their families from starvation by giving them jobs.
