@smalltalkdaily Not looking good for the UK IMHO
Granted I'm a boomer conservative so hopefully I'm wrong

@SauRoN_ZA @cluffspur @FinanceGhost @WOOLWORTHS_SA If so, cadbury apparently uses palm oil instead of as much cocoa which is not great. Not that chuckles were ever a healthy treat

Dear Lush (cc Chelmsford City Council),

As a woman who had half a breast removed last year due to cancer, I am writing to raise my concerns about your “Proud of My Stripes” window display.

I am also, on behalf of other women who have experienced breast cancer, respectfully requesting its removal.

Because mastectomies are not a fashion statement, an identity marker or something to be celebrated.

They are something women undergo because they are ill, because they are frightened, because they are trying to stay alive.

Around 59,000 women are diagnosed with breast cancer in the UK every year. Many will undergo surgery - a mastectomy, lumpectomy or other procedure.

Others choose preventive mastectomies because they carry a high-risk BRCA gene mutation.

If a woman chooses to have her breasts removed to affirm a gender identity, that is her personal choice.

I honestly don’t know the number of women who have elective mastectomies for this reason.

What I do know is that it is a tiny number compared with those for whom breast surgery is medically necessary and not something to be celebrated.

I think I speak for many women who have experienced breast cancer - and for their families - when I say this:

Breast removal surgery is not something I regard as cute, playful or empowering.

Nor is it something I believe retailers should be celebrating.

For that reason, I am requesting that the display be removed and that @ChelmsCouncil apologise for promoting it on social media.

Yours sincerely,

Janet Murray

@PolyannaBrey @Boertjie1111 @WOOLWORTHS_SA I buy a lot at a local farm shop/ deli in cape Town. Fresh milk, cheese, yoghurt and veg. Meat is from a butcher. Prices on par with woolies but better quality and support small businesses

@bunsenbernerbmd I don't have one but live in South Africa so lots about. Fantastic dogs especially if you love trail running or hiking. All the ones I've met on the mountain are very friendly.

@ViQueenie To be honest, I didn't expect the marriage to last this long.
