    It seems the supposed LGBT friendly right on Quay Co-op stores as been outed as a BDS outlet. The irony of boycotting the one nation that supports rights for LGBT in the middle east seems lost on these people. :mad:

    lol

    This is the usual "what about" nonsense, and makes no sense. What Sudanese, or North Korean companies actually do business in Ireland?

    Not the point. They single out Israel.

    That's totally the point. How can you "single-out" Israel if they're the only one of these countries mentioned actively doing business in Ireland? The hypotheticals are meaningless.

    In the video the employee said she'd have no problem dealing with other countries like Iran so it's not the point.

    For all we know they all might have thought he was bonkers,and instead of calling him out just shook his hand and left him walk away.
    The video proves nothing as no contracts were signed.

    Plenty broad minded thanks...that's why I don't watch the "fair and balanced" Fox News.

    Maybe take it to politics as you obviously have a political agenda here.

    The Quay co-op woman only asked for more information before making a decision. The most she could have been accused of, is being polite.

    This is truly a sad attempt to blacken someone's name.

    Wow that presenter is full of stereotyping bigotry... "Ireland home of Guinness, Leprechauns and Lucky charms cereal". Stopped watching after that.

    The guy was a full-on dipshhit, an American breakfast cereal has fucck-all to do with Ireland, and if he's starting off with such basic errors, it's really really hard to take anything he says seriously. That's without even commenting on the quality of the rest of it.......
