From Gillette to Waitrose, 'woke' companies alienate Middle England at their peril | BenedictSpence

I have a question for you. When you see an advert for a company trying to come across as progressive, are you more or less likely to buy their products? Do you feel an instinctive affinity with it, and its efforts to change the world in a certain direction? Or do you feel spoken down to, and just wish that the company would get on with the business of providing goods and services?

BenedictSpence ... and by 'middle England' they mean 'the English', an endangered race in their own country.

BenedictSpence Pandering to minorities won’t put money in your till

BenedictSpence Is middle England going to have a hissy snowflake meltdown about it, do you think? 🤷🏻‍♂️
