BGD 6,385 Posted December 9, 2016 Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 "Buy Chinese" would be more accurate for this shop I reckon.But is selling items that relate to Britain? "Buy British" means buying goods manufactured in Britain, it doesn't mean buying Chinese made tat with Union Flags plastered all over it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

DIDO.1 20,893 Posted December 9, 2016 Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 "Buy Chinese" would be more accurate for this shop I reckon. I only watched two minutes of it but he was showing products MADE in Britain...crafts and produce....but so what if a few tacky products are made in China? Trading with the rest of the world is a good thing....it's about how sick it is we are giving those complaining any airtime at all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Blackbriar 8,568 Posted December 9, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 9, 2016 The owner stated that the goods were all designed in Britain, but some are made abroad for cost reasons........but, for me, that isn't the issue. What angered me was that he has had his shop attacked several times, been verbally abused and had stock smashed.....by white, English speaking people ! If a shop owned by a Pole or a Pakistani were subjected to such treatment, the police and media would be all over it like a rash ! Are such people so absolutely ashamed of their heritage that not only are they denying it, but want others to be denied it, and would be happier if it were wiped away completely ? 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It is sad to see such cultural insensitivity in such a vibrant area. At first I thought this comment was obviously a joke,but I'm actually not sure now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
