Blackbriar 8,569 Posted June 20, 2013 Report Share Posted June 20, 2013 Does some of the hard-earned money you spend end up in the pockets of assorted 'animal rights' groups and anti-hunting fanatics? We all know the anti-hunting credentials of the Co-op (I hope), but did you know they also own, among a plethora of holdings, Somerfield stores and the internet bank Smile.co.uk. Maybe you have a funeral plan with Co-op Funerals, or an account at Co-op Bank? Same company, and your money goes into the same pockets.Are you doing business with them unwittingly? Do you buy Christmas smellies for the wife from Lush cosmetics? Owner Mark Constantine donates to loads of 'animal rights' groups, including the Hunt Saboteurs Association - he even had his company produce a citronella-scented soap that was used to distract hounds ! Fancy a shiny new stereo or a Smart TV? Don't buy it from Richer Sounds. Owner Julian Richer is a long-standing supporter of LACS and is a vice-prez of RSPCA ! If you belong to the Caravan Club, do you know about their partnership with RSPCA? Now you do know, do you still want to be a member? It's probably no surprise that Pedigree and Hill's Science Pet Foods fall into this group, but do you have a Mastercard credit card, shop at Wal-Mart (Asda), drive a Subaru, read any of Time Publishing's magazines or drink Budweiser? If you do then, by now, you can probably guess where some of your money goes. The list goes on and on, and some companies are reluctant to own up to their donation history, but the anti's have long used economic pressure to demonise perfectly legal activities. Maybe we should do the same. Do your homework, check your facts and vote with your wallet and purse - hit them where it really hurts! Don't give your hard-earned money to our enemies! And to all those who think they can't make a difference, now you've got no excuse ! 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
