Apart from that it’s identical. It’s a closer match for Bulgaria. Maybe M&S are really Bulgariaphobic? There’s some real numpties around. They should just be ignored, not pandered to. | |

It would be hilarious if it wasn't for the fact that just a couple of years ago a terrorist stabbed two women in a Marks & Spencer store because he believed the company funded Israel in its "persecution" of Palestine. | |

A comparison of the two images doesn't offend me, but I did find it interesting. As we have red next to white, with triangle marks mirrored, and a band of green and black, on fire imagery. Maybe someone being clever. | | | |

Absolute nutters, although that probably goes a long way to explain the company’s cautious stance. When I think of M&S, I must admit persecution of Palestinians isn’t uppermost in my thoughts. Normally it’s more about dull but comfortable socks. But a quick search shows this anti-M&S sentiment to be surprisingly (for me) prevalent on the internet. Some of it goes back to stuff said by their founder in the 1940s. | |

Ah, I didn’t know that. So it’s fairly obvious he’ll be pro-Jewish then! From what I can see the online stuff is largely a promotion of the usual Muslim hatred against Jews, picked up also by a few whacky communist sites. I’m not going to start digging into that stuff though to try and understand more. They’re nuts (the Burnley shop stabbing offender literally was - he was consigned to a psychiatric unit by the looks of it). | |
