    Iz it coz I is Ackee?

    Sainsbury's accused of racism for tagging tins of fruit | Daily Mail Online

    Snowflake alert

    Angry shopper accuses Sainsbury's of racism after he found £3.80 Jamaican delicacy security tagged in south London store
    EXCLUSIVE: Toby Taylor shocked to find store place £3.80 tins in security boxes
    The 31-year-old found a whole shelf of Jamaican delicacy tagged in London store
    He blasted it as 'coporate racism' and said he bet food retailer didn't tag hummus


    Speaking to MailOnline, he said: 'Whether it was an accident or intentional, this is corporate racism at its worst.

    'It's a metal can of produce that is very popular with a community that has huge issues with poor stereotypes permeated by bigoted old, white people.

    oh no its a 'Technology expert'

    The technology director took a picture of the items and shared it to social media to complain to the company directly.

    They only tag stuff that gets nicked regularly, and it varies from store to store. So instead of complaining about racism, maybe he should be criticising the shoplifters. Mind you, I'm not familiar with Ackee, but £4 for a tin of fruit sounds a bit harsh. I wonder how much of that is EU tariffs...
    His heart is in the right place - shame we can't say the same about his brain...

      indeed the entire point, they tag stuff that gets nicked its not a judgement. If white christian spinster ladies named Rosemarie from the WI like to steal Ackee then it gets tagged.


      Typical snowflake with half an idea.

            WTF! It's muddle headed thinking like this that has led Britain to be a laughing stock
            Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

              Just to be clear I was referring to the reaction to Sainsbury's doing this. If we all just dealt with facts and reality rather than how we felt the world/people should be there would be much better outcomes.

                Facts like a political party buying ten bigoted votes for £1billion in times of austerity?

                Yeah peasants, deal with it.

                    What's this then? Labour pandering to bigots? Or do principles go out the window when ideas are dressed up as "religion"?

                    As for austerity, what austerity do you think we have actually had?
