Reading University Students' Union has voted to ban Nestlé products from the Union shop after a unanimous vote at Student Voice. The record 0.0625% turnout voted for the confectionary to be banned after a furious debate exposed Nestlé's production process when one speaker shocked the audience by revealing that Kit Kats and Lion Bars were made with real cats.

The ban has not gone down well with all users of the Union with many staff and post-graduates unable to vote on the matter. However, Mark Lawson defended the ban on the Facebook group "Don't ban Nestle at my uni". He posted: "Everyone had a chance to debate the issue. The Student Voice meeting was clearly advertised in the Union's display department, in the cellar with the broken light switch, in a drawer clearly marked Beware of the Leopard. All students were sent the 'everybody's talking' newsletter which if they'd bothered to read the last item instead of automatically deleting them, they would have seen a clear invitation to debate it during the motion: RUSU Whale and Lesbian Society Pledge Solidarity with the Cacao Workers of Ecuador. If they couldn't be arsed to vote on such an important matter then they only have themselves to blame.

Kit Kats and Lion Bars join Smarties which have already been banned from the Union for several years because their name was deemed offensive to more educationally challenged students.
