To let you know that Ocado think women’s rights are “hateful political views”?

ummm. No.10 says he has, I haven't seen or heard anything which has HIM saying it. He's hiding so he can deny it in the future. Which is what weasels do.

No.10 is the equivalent of temporary contractor.

He had to.

Its been the better part of a week and its still making headlined.

The BBC news is "helpfully" playing clips of his hysterical historical position too

www.bbc.com/news/articles/crldey0z00ro.amp

Women and Equalities select committee chair, Labour's Sarah Owen, said the judges made their decision "without a single contribution from trans people" and won a commitment from Phillipson that trans "stakeholders" would be involved in the creation of upcoming guidance.

And there always has to be one politician who opts to provide the Village Idiot quote but why why why is it always the one who should understand the basic role the legal system has in
• protecting any type of right?
• interacting with the role the politicians got voted in to and paid to do?

Yes, my now late DH was also in the shit house department. In his entire life he never felt threatened by anyone. He was so confident and care free.

Yes, that’s a luxury no woman will ever have.

I see Keir has changed his stance on what makes a woman a woman. Quite right too.

Exactly! My DH is an ex rugby prop and built like the proverbial brick shit house. I still remember when he casually mentioned that he'd never once felt physically threatened, not once. And I just thought what an utter luxury and privilege that is.

Absolutely fuck off Ocado and take your feeble excuse of “it wasn’t really us it was this office junior because we are really nice” with you.
i wonder how many other companies pulled stunts like this while desperately trying to cosy up to the trans ideologues trying to cancel anyone who had a different view to theirs which was that the definition of women is includes men

In fairness, a lot of that goes for many retail firms. Opposing women's sex-based rights and calling them hateful, however, rather takes the biscuit; that's saying 51% of the world's population are not worthy of protection from harm, abuse etc. because those protections depend on knowing what a woman is (now we know - as if we didn't!).

Yes, I won’t be using them ever again. How bloody dare they?

I ordered ocado deliveries every 7-10 days from 2008 to 2022,i kid you not. Once I heard about their stance I never ordered again. I hope someone from ocado is reading this. Also, ocado are overpriced and morrisons use exactly the same vans and warehouses plus are cheaper! Go to hell, Ocado

I use Ocado all the time. Not sure how I had missed this. Won’t be using them again

That’s put me right off Ocado!

I know this already of course but I listened to a Vanessa feltz LBC program on women feeling and being vulnerable. She said has any female ever walked home carefree at night without worrying a man will attack etc.

I'm horrified watching footage of that protest and the violence raging against women there.
Many men agree with women on this and yet all the rage and vitriol is to women.

How are people contacting ocado? Is there an email address

Are Ocado aware these are the sort of people they are supporting

Why do so many businesses feel they need to publicise opinions on issues that have nothing to do with the goods and services they render? Surely it's a fool's game to potentially alienate a large portion of your customer base. I prefer businesses that keep things neutral. If you have a statement to make, make it as a private citizen, on your own time, rather than bringing it into the workplace!

I really dislike that cheery not our views, contractors,ok any more questions,tally ho, have a great weekend

There is absolutely no sense of the seriousness here; the gravitas of what they have done

The audit will be a scream and uber expensive if they actually allowed random temps full unsupervised control of a key business relationships.

Who knows how may contracts have been signed or broken in each busniess area if they have the average staff turnover and hire in temps.

Oh dear. They fell out with Waitrose, replaced them with M&S, and now that relationship is on the rocks. And now we find out that they’ve burnt their bridges with Mumsnet.

They sound quite difficult as a company. I wonder where they go after M&S? The doesn’t seem to be an obvious replacement.

Yes and yes by the look of it. I’m still not going to shop there again.

So they are continuing with the lies?

Awesome, they really think you/us are that dumb 🙄

Here’s the reply I had on asking to delete my account

Thanks for reaching out to us.

“These comments are not representative of us as a company, and we believe they were made by a temporary contractor who is no longer with the business. We apologise unreservedly to Mumsnet.

In the meantime, if you have any other questions, please get in touch. Otherwise, I hope you have a lovely day. Take care!”

I suspect the M&S and Ocado partnership may come to an end in Sept, over something totally unrelated but still another reason not to bother with them. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-68433637

Is it still the temp contractors fault?

The “apology” made it to the BBC Radio 3 news at 13:00 today. THE BBC!

Same. It was about 2018 iirc. They vowed not to use the same billboard company that had rented the space to Posie for the “adult human female “ poster. I think it was outside the Labour Party conference. It was completely unnecessary for them to wade in and they really doubled down on it and said quite a lot of fundamentally misogynistic shite. It was very much a “if someone tells you who they are, believe them” situation.

I get a Waitrose shop about every 6-8 weeks with Aldi for basics in between.

Is that you, Ocado’s “temporary” “contractor”? 👀
