A small group of left-wing campaigners are attempting to limit what newspapers report about immigration, Islam, and transgenderism, successfully “bullying” business into withdrawing ads from publications they don’t agree with.
The Stop Funding Hate (SFH) campaign claims that the Sun, Express, and Daily Mail are “using hate to sell newspapers,” influencing the gullible masses, and links their reports to an alleged rise in “hate crime.”
“History has shown us time and again the dangers of demonising foreigners and minorities,” SFH add, seemingly implying news coverage could lead to fascism and genocide.
Thank you for taking time to share your opinion. We genuinely like to know what customers think about us – even though on this occasion some of your feedback is uncomfortable to hear. We promise to review in detail all customer feedback on this promotion.

Last week the stationery brand Paperchase capitulated and said they were “truly sorry” for advertising in one of the nation’s best read papers, claiming they were “wrong” and “won’t ever do it again.”
Days before, SFH has posted a message on Twitter asking Paperchase if “a Daily Mail promotion is really what customers want to see” after a “torrid few weeks of divisive stories” about transgender issues.
One their website, SFH boasts of numerous other brands who have either pulled ads or signed up to support their “ethical” boycott of right-wing papers, including Lego, Specsavers, Plusnet, and the Body Shop.
