Fake vodka warning in Bolton shops

TRADING standards officers are warning the public to be on the look-out for fake vodka being sold in Bolton.
Investigators carried out raids on shops in the Deane and Little Lever areas this week after customers were sold counterfeit Glen's Vodka.
One woman, who asked not to be named, told The Bolton News she had bought two 70cl bottles at a shop in Deane on Monday night.
She said: "I went to the counter and asked the lady for two bottles. She reached up to the shelf, but as she did so a man, who was also behind the counter, said something in his native language and then she picked up some bottles off the floor.
"I didn't think anything of it, but when I was drinking it at home I remembered an article I had seen in the paper about fake vodka being sold in Leigh.
"I noticed a mis-spelling on the bottle and phoned my neighbour, who had the other bottle, to tell her.
"I had drunk quite a bit of it, but fortunately I don't think it has harmed me."
No counterfeit alcohol was discovered during Tuesday's raids.
However, trading standards officials say Glen's Vodka can be easily identified because the bottle, made by Allied Glass Containers, should have a small AGC logo around the base.
The counterfeit vodka may also have "Ayrshire" mis-spelt on the front label, with the letter "i" missing.
Richard Lindley, head of Bolton trading standards, said: "The bottles which we received complaints about were counterfeit. We are warning people to look out for these bottles as it seems they are available in Bolton. The contents have not yet been analysed but it could be very dangerous and should not be drunk."
To report anything suspicious, telephone trading standards on 01204 336586.

I think you'll find the only concern the Government have is that the revenue they receive doesn't match that of the expensive vodkas.
This vodka will be every bit as good as the proprietary branded vodkas.
Trading standards should be there to help the public not pandering to the Governments every whim in protecting the major companies, DIAGEO for example who watch the small manufacturers persecuted whilst they benefit from Government departments ridding the streets of competition.
Come the revolution...

The Bolton News is always keen to remove threads once racial issues arise.
Some say this is because Newsquest wish to remain politically correct. I say its more likely that the company fears upsetting its customers and its profits. And when I say its customers I dont mean Bolton News readers, Im referring to the newsagents that Newsquest supply. In this multicultural England that we are now all part of, an ever-growing number of local newspaper sales outlets are run by proprietors of foreign origins. With this in mind the Bolton News readers should ask themselves the following is our local newspaper being PC (politically correct) or PC (profit conscious)? After all, in business it never pays to upset the customer, especially with comments about race or creed.

Now try to say that I am wrong - Germany is more east than The Netherlands - true or false?

I bet you even believe everything Wikipedia says or even you local newspaper (oops I forgot, you don't read that as you read the BN as you think that's part of Suffolk!!!!)
Some of the strongest smells have been reported in Reading and Basingstoke, with other reports of a stench in East Anglia, as far north as DurhamYou are the ones that said the pong is all over England - I never know that England just consisted of the southern counties as there is no pong here in the north!!!!Durham in the south of England? What an idiot.
Mistakes can be made on the net.
Anyway, if i is as far north a Durgham - there is ONE reason as to why it won't reach Greater Manchester - I am sure you know the answer considering your geographic skills - the one block being........?

Anyone looking at the map will realise that there does seem to be something wrong with the Durham factor - seems to be a very isolated incidence of the pong???? Why???
Again, is this the same pong as what the south has got or is it something else - other readers its for you to decide but the evidence shown is that it COULD be a different smell - nothing proved!

I can why ALL southerners re as thick as pig doings and no wonder its smells of the same down there!!!!!!!
Again look at your map from the BBC - does seem to be a very isolated case - is it the same smell?? can you verify that it is the same smell????? From the evidence, from what I have seen and read it is very conjucture and could just well be a normal industrial smell that they are smelling, compared to down south.
The 2 cases are VERY isolated and nowher near the real smells - it smells of these people wanting media attention more than anything else!!!!
But that is my own point of view - what's yours, SOUTHERNER?
And, again, you are denying your own post in saying that the smell comers from GERMANY - you have even posted it in your own comment (from the BBC website) they have mentioned Germany, which if I am not wrong is more east than the Netherlands.
Again, I pose to you the BBC say it originates from Germany, The Netherlands and Belgium - which is the most eastern and as such the originating point?
Is Germany more eastern than The Netherlands? (2nd time of asking)

The Netherlands is often called Holland. This is formally incorrect as North and South Holland in the western Netherlands are only two of the country's twelve provinces.
The 12 provinces (or counties for the Southern English) being:
North Holland
South Holland
-collectively known as the Randstad
plus
Flevoland
Friesland
Drenthe
Groningen
Gelderland
Limburg
Utrecht

Helen Chivers of the Met Office said the origin of the smell had been narrowed down to the area of Europe roughly bordered by Holland, Germany and Belgium. Why do you keep digging a great big hole that you can't get out of?

Now correct me if I am wrong but isn't Germany more east than The Netherlands Kingdom? (3rd time of asking) - If so then isn't it right that the smell originates from Germany?
Now tell me who the LIAR is, Chav?

Dear Chris, Ian, Lynn and Andrew
I do now believe that it is time something is done with these jokers as they are now using language which has NEVER been used on the Wanderers section, and yet you seem to allow it all the time of the News section.
The following example is just the norm more or less every day of the week.
£91,000 watch stolen from jewellers
Banned me? Since when? I think you've been smelling too many turds of your mate buggerboy , or been in that Sweetgreen on advocat. What a first class pric you are.
Hanging round Moor Lane for little boys. Are you back here to pay some of the £64 grand or answer bail for them pictures they found?
Amos, chief spammer and all round tosser.

or then there is Chas, Suffolk who does seem to take the truth and seems intent on trying to demean me on most of the stories in the news section. Plus he is often creating personal insults and verging on personal threats such as:-
chas wrote:

Please answer this - why do you let these characters carry on and never seem to ban them, and yet they break the terms and conditions EVERY day of the week of every month. Also, why has the News section comments NEVER been suspended, unlike the Wanderers section when more stronger language and personal abuse is situte on the news section more than the Wanderers?
Yours faithfully

I live in North Holland - the capital being Haarlem
The Capital of South Holland being Den Haag (The Hague) or to give the full name s'Gravenhaag.
What's the capital of Holland - there isn't one because it doesn't exist.
The TRUE capital of The Netherlands is Amsterdam, in North Holland, whilst the POLITICAL capital of The Netherlands is Den Haag, in South Holland!
