<p>A group of large busted British women have threatened to storm the annual meeting of Marks &#038; Spencer to protest the store&#8217;s policy of charging more for bigger bras.</p>
<p>The women intend to confront M&#038;S boss, Sir Stuart Rose about what they consider to be unfair discrimination against large busted women. Marks &#038; Spencer charges £2 more for bras that are DD in size or larger. The store&#8217;s rationalization is that it costs them more in time, technology and materials to produce the larger product.</p>
<p>Calling themselves &#8220;Busts 4 Justice,&#8221; the women are not taking the perceived price gouging lightly. They have garnered widespread support for their cause, even going to the extent of setting up a Facebook group to spread the word and collecting a large sum of money they used to buy M&#038;S shares, giving them the right to be present at the company&#8217;s annual meeting as shareholders.</p>
<p>Co-founder of Busts 4 Justice, Beckie Williams, and their supporters have already held talks with the M&#038;S lingerie team without getting the result they want.</p>
<p>Williams, a childrens writer from Brighton who is also a size 34E, says they will take their campaign to the M&#038;S shareholders at the AGM in July.</p>
<blockquote><p>&#8220;We are very disappointed with their decision. They haven&#8217;t listened to us as customers, so now maybe they&#8217;ll have to listen to us as shareholders. Marks &#038; Spencer is Britain&#8217;s biggest lingerie seller so we want them to change their pricing for all the women affected. I still don&#8217;t think they can justify this charge since many of their rivals charge the same price regardless of size.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>In an email memo leaked to Busts 4 Justice, M&#038;S reps said in no uncertain terms that they would not be pressured into changing their pricing &#8220;in the current climate.&#8221;</p>
