I agree LongDriver, there is no mileage whatsoever of boycotting unless you get at least 50% of society to support you. The only person to be made uncomfortable is yourself.

But you donāt always, or even usually boycott in the belief youāre going to damage or bring down a multi-millionaire!
The point is that I think heās a hypocritical git and using one of his shoddy products and knowing Iād made a contribution to his coffers, however small, would make a little bit of vomit rise up in the back of my throat!
Now thatās uncomfortable

Well, of course heās not bothered, but I am and I donāt want his hypocritical stench around me or my home, Iād feel defiled!
Obviously I hope he goes bankrupt and dies miserable and alone but Iāll just have to hope karma takes care of that

I sincerely thank Yahweh that the majority of people in this life do not have hopes along the lines you convey. Think along these lines instead and the world might be a better place 
Words are singularly the most powerful force available to humanity. We can choose to use this force constructively with words of encouragement, or destructively use words of despair. Words have energy and power with the ability to help, to heal, to hinder, to hurt, to harm, to humiliate and to humble. Which will you choose Mary?

The company I despise is Furniture Village.
I paid almost Ā£3,000 for a leather settee & 2 chairs & within 18 months the settee had started to peel.
Of course we complained & they sent an independent āexpertā out to look at it. He came down on their side - said it wasnāt the companyās fault, that it was because my husband lay down on it. Such ridiculous excuses.
We went to an ombudsman, trading Standards etc but nobody would help us.
In the end I gave up - I threw a throw over it to cover the peelingā¦
I really hate Furniture Village. I later found out that the furniture they sold us was made from reconstituted leather. It was leather cut offs that had been minced up & glued back together.
I finally got rid of it to the scrap yard a month ago when I bought another from the Heart Foundation Charity shop. Cost us Ā£250 & I love it. Itās real thick proper leather in wonderful condition. I wonder why somebody wanted to get rid of it but Iām glad they didā¦
