Thisismoney.co.uk: Exposed: I am not an Ethical Bag and Susie Bubble: I am not a Smug Twat
The Anya Hindmarch "I am not a Plastic Bag" PR catastrophe got worse
when it was revealed that the bags were made in China and
probably cost a carbon fooprint fortune to get them over to the UK.
Now, in an even funnier twist, Susie Bubble has photos of ripoff bags m0cking the buyers of those bags, saying "I am not a smug twat" on sale for £19,
but currently sold out. Certainly not the expected turn of events for Sainsbury's, or Anya Hindmarch, or most upsettingly, for the genuine campaigners for ethical and socially
responsible consumption. BoF first discussed this issue
back when a horde of desparate shoppers queued up my street, clamouring
for the bags on weekday morning.
