But then R' Allan Engel posted "From the London Beth Din site:"

Yikes! I am very surprised by this! Yes, indeed, someone -- or even better, *several* people -- should point this out to them! If I can find the exact web page, I will certainly try to tell them myself!

You can see the above quote yourself in their "Kosher Nosh Guide", at http://www.kosher.org.uk/documents/NoshGuide5M.pdf  It appears on page 5 of the printed version, or page 3 of the PDF file.

(I had hoped that their use of "chalav akum" might be limited to powdered milk, following the psak of some (such as Rav Tzvi Pesach Frank, IIRC) who hold that tamei milk cannot become powder. But the listings of ice creams, and milkshakes, and yoghurts would seem to knock that idea down.)
