Ben & Jerry's lawsuit says parent company Unilever silenced them on four occasions for speaking out in support of peace and human rights.

Ben & Jerry's lawsuit says parent company Unilever silenced them on four occasions for speaking out in support of peace and human rights.Ben & Jerry's says it has tried to call for a ceasefire, support the safe passage of Palestinian refugees to Britain, back students protesting at US colleges against civilian deaths in Gaza, and advocate for a halt in US military aid to Israel, but has been blocked by Unilever.

The spinout would include the top-selling Vermont-based maker of Chubby Hubby, although experts on corporate governance said the brand's board, a centrepiece of the new lawsuit, could present challenges to the deal. In its new lawsuit, Ben & Jerry's says that Unilever has breached the terms of the 2022 settlement, which has remained confidential. As part of the agreement, however, Unilever is required to"respect and acknowledge the Ben & Jerry's independent board's primary responsibility over Ben & Jerry's social mission," according to the lawsuit.

The independent board separately spoke out on some of those topics, but the company was muzzled, the lawsuit says.
