Waitrose is now under fire. The supermarket of the Telegraph reader have hit a sticky patch with the Telegraph. Waitrose Brexit and woke, what a time to be alive.

It comes as Allison Pearson wrote an article entitled: “I’m giving up on Waitrose.”

The middle class won’t put up with a supermarket that cares more about ‘values’ than stocking its shelves, she goes on.

If Allison Pearson tried to lecture me on why she’s giving up Waitrose while over 750,000 people in the last year used a food bank for the first time I would simply push her the fuck over x pic.twitter.com/4EMuC7mU2j

Also, Laurence Fox is fuming about Waitrose supporting pride month.

He tweeted: “All people want is to buy dinner, go home and feed the family. This month I will be doing my shopping at @AldiUK (as they seem not to have fallen down the migraine flag virtue hole) @waitrose, you should just sell food.”

Save British Farming tweeted: “It’s always been the case that @waitrose has championed high quality British farmers and food.

“Now @Telegraph is pouring scorn on Waitrose for not abandoning British food and stocking imported lower standard foods.”

Johnson sold out farmers

There is also a row about how Boris Johnson sold out Britain’s farmers over dinner with the Australian PM. As the UK-Australia trade deal comes into force, those close to the negotiations reflect on their dramatic — and farcical — climax, reports Politico.

“After three intensive hours of talks the dinner was reaching a “crescendo,” the former Australian official quoted above said, with the Aussies pressing Johnson to give them what they wanted on beef.

“To their amazement, Johnson gave way on tariffs and product weights. Brandis, the high commissioner, moved like a flash, writing down Johnson’s pledge on a piece of paper and then excusing himself to go to the washroom. On his way to the toilet he handed the paper to an aide, the same former Australian official added.”

Waitrose Brexit Reactions

1.

The Brexit that newspaper championed was supposedly about cheaper – ie poorer quality – imported food.

Some chickens seem to be coming home to roost. Possibly about 6,000 miles, in a freight aircraft.

So the Brexiteer nutjobs now telling me to boycott Waitrose. They seem intent on damaging all of our institutions and for what ?BREXIT!

Are they suggesting Lidl and Aldi instead?

Ironic they want you to boycott a historic British company for German ones. Not very patriotic of them. wonder how European supermarkets might be able to get supplies easier than the ones just based here… Mystery🤔

Having already fallen out with Waitrose and Ocado, Loozza Fox is off to Aldi for his groceries, so shoppers beware! Still I doubt the honeymoon will last long. Any day now he will be the ‘Costcutter Tommy Robinson’. 😂😂😂 pic.twitter.com/heAXpwB2xI

It is without doubt true that Brexit has seriously impacted our food system. That Waitrose appear to have supply issues no doubt is linked to the fact many supply chains are in chaos. Listen to farmer and wholesaler ⬇️ https://t.co/KhBHQg2eu8

Allison Pearson, Laurence Fox and Richard Tice won’t be shopping at Waitrose because they’re supporting Pride Month. Their absence is as good a reason to shop at Waitrose as any, I suppose 👍 https://t.co/Kt51lUqxZ7

Allison Pearson thinks fruit shortages in Waitrose are caused by their support for LGBT Pride. Why does this batsh*t nonsense even get published?https://t.co/SoirNou7Fe

I'm sure Waitrose are inconsolable https://t.co/dhSEmJEmYD
