    Excluding the impact of people losing jobs etc is there any company you would love to see go belly up due to the current situation.

    One that stands out for me is Ticketmaster, horrible shower of hures.

    If so, who and why?

    Yeah Apple. Cringe loyal fanbase, every dumb virtue signalling hipster seems to use it seemingly oblivious to their practices.

    Happy Pear- The guys are annoying but not the reason I want them to go under more so again, you get the same virtue signalers, arriving in their range rovers to eat 'local organic produce'

    Just really any bull**** virtue signalling corporation who latch onto any movement so as to improve their image and profits. Fair weather organisations whose ethics pretty much means ethics as long as its profitable.

    Does TheLiberal.ie qualify as a business? Because there’s not much that would give me more pleasure than that toerag Leo Sherlock being held to account for his abhorrent plagiarism, baiting and general sh!t-stirring.

    How about companies actually destroying the planet, like BP, Chevron plus many more?


    Fookin Apple? Bigger fruit to burn imo.
