Biscuit makers are bringing back the 270-year-old Bath Oliver after crunch talks – and protests led by Commons leader Jacob Rees-Mogg. Oliver died he left some money, a sack of flour and the recipe for Bath Oliver biscuits to his coachman Atkins, who set up a biscuit-making business and became rich!
