Target was one of several brands to face a backlash and calls for a boycott earlier in the year over its LGBTQ+ Pride range, being accused of going "woke." While experts have said such corporate lobbying provides an opportunity for brands to appeal to consumers in new markets, critics have accused companies of alienating their traditional customer base.

Their cars are parked in the driveway year rotund to accommodat
