Marmite is beginning legal action against the British National Party after an image of a Marmite jar was used on a political broadcast without its permission, the company said.
'We are currently initiating injunction proceedings against the BNP to remove the Marmite jar from the online broadcast and prevent them from using it in future.''
In a series of Twitter messages posted on the BNP website, Mr Griffin wrote: "Unilever PR men and lawyers all over us like a rash. Very upset at our using Marmite in our TV broadcast.

Maybe the BNP can regain some of the money lost in this case by suing Penguin books for printing their tagliatelle recipe.

Grounds for more suing?
Also, he leaves a taste in your mouth similar to marmite.
EDIT: I realised that probably not everyone one else hates marmite on here so thought I should make it clear thats what I meant
