TRANSGENDERBritish DIY/Builder’s Merchant decides that BudLight’s marketing ideas should be copied and then reaps the boycott. I suspect the fellow making the statements might have a little secret of his own!

Referring to Mulvaney:
She was even given a beer can with her face printed on it to celebrate her 365 days of being a woman.
Except that he's not a woman. He's a disturbed man playing pretend who conned a city's worth of other people (going by numbers of followers) into agreeing that his delusions are reality.

DIY giant Wickes is facing a furious boycott campaign and tumbling share price after its chief operating officer said shoppers with trans-critical views are 'bigots' who 'are not welcome in our stores anyway'. Wickes, one of Britain's largest suppliers of home improvement products, controversially carried a float at Brighton Pride last year with the slogan 'No LGB without the T'. Yesterday, Fraser Longden, the firm's chief operating officer, took part in an online trans summit hosted by Pink News and sponsored by EY. Mr Longden said: 'I don't think I'm ever going to change some of the bigots minds, I'm never going to win that argument with them, so we were doing [the Pride float] to show support to the community'. His comment provoked a furious backlash online and Wickes' share price is currently down five points - 4.25 per cent today.

Me thinks Mr Longden doth protest too much!

Generally telling any group of people they "aren't welcome" at your retail establishment is fucking stupid.
Unless you are saying something really directly related to your business, like "customers who harass other customers are not welcome".

Like fucking hell staff at a lot of places would love it if they could ban people who abused them. I've known people who have customers actually attack them who were let back in. Physically attacked. Think stuff like getting punched or having their hair pulled out because the shop didn't have what they wanted in stock. I know I'd prefer to shop somewhere that looks after their staff than ones that don't.

I just call the cops it that happens. Doesn't make me popular with management but that's an easy as fuck payout if they retaliate against you for calling the cops after someone has assaulted you

you're a hardware store: launch some ad campaigns, maybe an employee contribution: don't get into titty fights online, don't spout off on a fuckin' "trans summit hosted by Pink News," don't wade into the disputes within the rainbow spectrum
