The same supermarket was showing off a display of the table covered in traditional delights to eat…just couldn’t recognise a single item as ‘traditional’ in this country.

Apparently ASDA are at it too, selling 'Fir Trees' not CHRISTmas Trees. Pathetic Yankee-owned woke-ridden organisation.

Asda is owned by a consortium that includes the billionaire Issa brothers, who are of Pakistani descent, and the private equity firm TDR Capital, Mohsin and Zuber Issa are British billionaires from Blackburn who founded the EG Group and led the consortium that purchased Asda from Walmart in 2020.
The brothers are muslim.

I stand corrected SP, I wasn't aware that Walmart sold up in 2020, I might have been distracted by something at the time (!) but what you say makes perfect sense in respect of the current stupidity.

but will people change their shopping habits even though the majority are against this nonesence that disruspect our traditions. imagine the noise coming out of the msm if similar actions were done against muslim festivals calling ramadan a festival of fasting and not using its name.

The new owners in late 2019 decided to issue new contracts known as "Contract 6," which led to a threat of dismissal for workers who refused to sign. The new terms included eliminating paid breaks etc., sounds like great company to work for.
