That came up before but they're actually doing it. Boycotts are a nonsense but I'd sooner that than the government rolling over people just to lick arse elsewhere :evil:

i have always failed to understand why local councils have any reason to ban/boycott anything that is not within there local area not withstanding that they place millions upon millions of pounds of council tax in overseas accounts that should be used for their own local area instead of pleading poverty and cutting services ...

Yeah, that's so mixed up factually between things they do, things they should do, things they used to do and things they never did I honesty don't know where to start.
