New Starbucks in Whitechapel
A new Starbucks restaurant is opening up Whitechapel in East London. Aside from the docklands area, this represents the first foray into the east end of the nippleless mermaid. To be honest we have all expected the beast to be arriving at our doorstep for a while now, with the gradual gentrification of the area making the ground safe for Starbucks and their ilk.
That said we don't intend to let one of the most destructive elements to local character move in smoothly. Starbucks represent pretty much everything that's wrong with the current world order. A bland homogenous corporation, with a sanitised brand image which wipes out local character and replaces it with cut and paste mock individuality to buy in a variety of spuriously named sizes. All this funded by ruthless business, raping the third world for their labour and money, and strangling local small businesses with their power. Starbucks are not nice.
It seems we are not the only ones who think this, only this morning we found this pasted up on the hoardings where they are building the new store.
If you wish to add your voice to a growing dissent against the evil green giant, the new store can be found just opposite altab ali park in Whitechapel, East London.
