Time for a DDMS article about Bloomberg's underhanded tactics!  ;D
The tweeter in chief has been tweeting about it.

Interesting indeed.
If the situation was flipped and only Chabad ate, I'm sure @churnbabychurn would have much to say :D
They do it every morning! I have plenty to say..  I'm sure somewhere on these forums I have said already ;)

You were in Yeshiva in London?
Which years?

I wasn't, but have family up the road so I've visited many a time.

It is made available and everyone knows that it is bdieved and many don't attend.

So then why make a spectacle of it? Let people who feel weak make their own arrangements, no?
Never heard of anything else done like that in public for a b'dieved.
Save your time, I don't answer PM. Post it in the forum and a dedicated DDF'er will get back to you as soon as possible.

The source is not brought in Minhogei Chabad AFAIK, rather in a letter from the Rebbe's father to the Rebbe before his wedding.
I believe it's brought in kuntris eitz chayim as well

Why don't you (and @MeirS) post images of sources (or at least links).
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

I don't know what he's doing with them or what the difference is between the two but possibly one serves milk and one doesn't. Although I'm not vouching on the kashrus on any of the two establishments.
