Grafton: The Unacceptable Face of Capitalism!
On its website Grafton Group plc purports to recognise "the importance of conducting its business in a socially responsible manner" claims, however, best daubed on a whited sepulchre and then power hosed off to reveal the cynical profiteering and hypocrisy beneath:
Despite an commendable accomodation with Limerick IPSC last November, where the manager of Atlantic Homecare, pending clarification, removed Israeli manufactured goods for sale, Grafton Group has been toughing it out with us since by reshelving the offending items in question, ignoring all our letters and pleas to address our humanitarian concerns and polite requests to live up to its professed ideals of "Corporate social responsibility".
Grafton through its DIY outlets, flogs Israeli manufactured, Keter plastic garden sheds, storage bins, etc, items that can be easily outsourced elsewhere, rather than do the decent thing, on point of black principle, against the grain of its own ethos, it aids and abets the economy of a criminal state which makes the egregious crimes of Apartheid South Africa peccadilloes in comparison?.
