Warehouse advertisement from the Sunday magazine August 10th
Spotted this in the Sunday Star Magazine this weekend. Apparently the Warehouse can sell you a spade, seedlings, citrus trees, compost and fertilisers, and greenhouses. Well that’s grand, a sustainable life-supporting ecosystem for sale at your local megastore – love it. Except you’ve nicked our bloody branding Stephen!
It’s been happening all year. Companies you’d associated with cars, cows, and coal all jumping on the Green bandwagon. I wonder if the Warehouse are purposefully abandoning their boring old Labour Party colours?

Oh, and true Greenies don’t use artificial fertilisers . . . Possibly
