Does WH Smith hate our seals?

Can I ask my Flickr viewers to view my four and three-quarter minute film on YouTube?:

Flying ring frisbees were banned from West Norfolk beaches in November 2022 and are strongly discouraged on North Norfolk beaches because they injure, and even kill, playful and curious seals. Unfortunately they are still being sold in the Kings Lynn branch of high street retailer WH Smith more than two weeks after my partner received an email from WH Smith saying that they were dealing with it. Yes, they 'dealt with it'. As the brief film explains they moved these dangerous ring frisbees into the 'reduced area' of the store.
They just carried on selling them and despite the well publicised beach ban.

I am calling on WH Smith to remove them from sale, cut them in half and put them into plastic recycling.
£1 to kill a seal? That's cheaper than a harpoon!

The black and white photo is not mine. It was published in the Lynn News which I fully support on this issue.
