MP resurrects row over Easter egg packaging

Confectionery companies have been criticised after an annual survey of Easter egg packaging revealed there has been only a slight improvement in wasteful wrapping.

Jo Swinson, the Liberal Democrat MP for East ­Dunbartonshire, has campaigned against excessive packaging and has carried out the name-and-shame study for the past three years. She said Guylian was the worst offender, followed by Lindt, Bailey’s and Cadbury.
