Warehouse
Reaches Heights Of Hypocrisy
by Stephen Tindall-the woman*
"The so-called loyal flags being sold in the thousands at The
Warehouse
stores should be re-named disloyal flags", says Stephen Tindall-the
woman,
founder of MADENZ. These flags have been made in Taiwan.
"If ever there was a lesson to illustrate hypocrisy, this has
got to be it"
Ms Tindall said from Mt Maunganui today. "To use the nations
symbolic
silver fern to promote loyalty on a flag that has been made
in Taiwan,
beggars belief. These flags will stand forever as a symbol of
disloyalty
and patriotism twisted by greed." "Importing product that could
and should
be made by your fellow countrymen and women, is one of the most
unpatriotic, most disloyal things I can imagine a company to
do. The
Warehouse Ltd relies upon New Zealanders to buy their products
and support
their pet campaigns but they do not want New Zealanders to have
jobs making
these products."
"I urge all truly loyal New Zealanders who have purchased these
Taiwanese
flags from The Warehouse Ltd to return them under their money
back
guarantee in the spirit of true patriotism."
