    This is not just Doom and Gloom

    This is M&S Doom and Gloom.

    Marks & Spencer, the high street retailer, will announce just under 1,000 job cuts from its stores and head office following its poorest Christmas trading period in years.

    I blame M&S themselves. For years I'd got my standard white shirts (suitable for meetings in The City) from M&S, then in the early 1990s they stopped selling them.

    No demand apparently.

    I stopped buying from M&S way back then.
