Ha.... daft buggers in Wigan could not agree terms of employment for the new sauce line (reported as a brexit bonus when pulled from Holland to be set up in Wigan in 2021). Heinz said " enough of your sauce, we will move it to Poland and Spain instead.

Gawd, how many instances like this must be reported before the acceptance that these brexit voters were, and still are, complete numbheads?
All I can hope is that said workers lose everything, except this impinges on their poor children who probably wanted nothing do with all this.
You do not know whether to laugh or cry!

57 +Poland + Spain you need a new battery in your Sinclair calculator. I don't know why I am rising to this - I must get out more. 57 refers to the.numbrr of varieties not factories. The site in Wigan was one of my customers in my career.

57 was a number picked at random by Mr Heinz simply because it looked right. Their are way more than 57 varieties of Heinz products.
Why would Brexiteers want to work for a company with a foreign name anyway. Now if it were Robertson or whatever, that's a whole different thing.

This has nothing to do with brexit but british workers who were too greedy causing the company to "call their bluff".

Some stories say 5 was his lucky number and 7 his wifes...

Nah--- It's got to be the number of factories with chimneys taller than 30m.
