For myself, I take some care to spend my hard-earned dosh with companies whose ethics I like, so that means not the big A and mostly local shops where I can.

People like Nigel Farage & Piers Morgan, for example.
I'm just waiting for our wretched prime minister to complain that he's being cancelled because his popularity ratings are in the mid 20s... He really is getting more like Trump every week.
