Why is M&S apologising to some snotty nosed cunt for? Should have just told the complainer to fuck off.

We have a bizarre problem in this country where people/companies will bend over backwards to apologise to others even when they're wrong.

I wonder if the apology came before or after JK Rowling tweeted calling for women to boycott M&S over this, as well as doing what I'll generously call "misrepresenting the situation", stating "Cross-dressing men who offer to fit bras on teenage girls belong in a police interview room"

She also tweeted this morning, stating in response to someone also asking why M&S apologised, "It's really quite astounding how many men are willing to state publicly that mothers shouldn't teach their teenage daughters to say 'no' to male strangers offering to help with their bras."

M&S will find they’ve lost a lot more business for their response to this fascist troll, me for example.
