For over 30 years I have been a loyal Waitrose customer, until something went wrong a few years ago. Who owns Waitrose? It sounds lovely, when you say Waitrose is owned by a "Partnership" of their own employees. It is not owned by some GIANT Globalist company like BLACKROCK, as in the case of Tesco. "Partnerships" sounds fightfully ADORABLE! But it is a lie! Grok told me the following: "The John Lewis Partnership (JLP, covering John Lewis and Waitrose) is employee-owned via a trust, with partners (employees) sharing profits and having democratic structures for influence. Policies—including ESG/ethics/sustainability and people/inclusion rules—are primarily set by the Partnership Board and its committees, with input from elected partner representatives, executives, internal networks, and external stakeholders such as NGOs." It was the "external stakeholders such as NGOs." that piqued my interest. Two NGO "Charities" have had a huge say in the running of Waitrose. MERMAIDS which supports pubescent girls BINDING THEIR BREASTS (very dangerous!) & STONEWALL the homosexual group. Then I found the bombshell, as to why they had this influence. A Tony Blair trained "economist" with a glittering Globalist CV, ran Waitrose from 2020 - 2024 (the shortest ever tenure of a chairperson) & her name was Sharon White (now a Baroness who sits in the House of Lords) This lady (my age) went from working for a church, to the UK Treasury under the wing of Tony Blair & ended up at the British Embassy in Washington at the tender age of 23! She was clearly TALENT SPOTTED, as her political leaning is so far left, she would make Chairman Mao jealous! Sharon White became Senior Economist at the WORLD BANK. She was Director General for the Department of International Development & over saw the UK Treasury during the financial crisis of 2008. In 2014 she became Chief Exec of Ofcom, & over saw "reform" (I would imagine silencing British conservative voices!) This woman is NOT a globalist "pet" like Andy Burnham. She is a FULLY FLEDGED Globalist! Married to a man who was Chief Advisor at the IMF. WHY Waitrose thought she would be good chairperson material, with no background in retail, is a mystery to me, but she was gifted the job in 2020 on an eye popping salary, just short of £1 MILLION! She even stopped bonus's for Waitrose staff (source BBC) In short Waitrose was being run by a GLOBALIST on behalf of other globalists, & embedded Agenda 2030 Hard left policies in Waitrose, so hard & so deeply, it would have made Klaus Schwab blush! & by all accounts Sharon White almost brought Waitrose to it's knees! Today Waitrose Chairman is Jason Tarry, who's CV is not quite so glittering, BUT he had a 30 year career with Tesco, so BLACKROCK policies & agendas will be second nature to him! Waitrose today is a massive bastion of WOKE! Waitrose MAIN concerns are: SHAREHOLDER PROFIT Net Zero Human Rights Diversity & Inclusion Sustainable Development (straight from the pages of Agenda 2030) Carbon Footprints of their hard pressed customers. Gender, Trans inclusion LGBTQ Waitrose are not "publicly" aliened with Agenda 2030 policy, but it is embedded at every turn. After discovering these FACTS I can say, hand on heart, that I will NEVER shop at Waitrose again! Waitrose are 10x worse than a B CORP! & they have been horribly dismissive of their customers concerns about the folic acid mandate, & are selling HALAL ritually slaughtered meat, UNLABELLED (just a slaughter code on the packet, that no ordinary person can understand!) which forces us all to eat animals that have been TORTURED TO DEATH! Waitrose, you ARE done! Does any of this surprise anyone?
