Sorry you feel that way. It wasn't our intension to come across like that. How could we have got our message across more positively?

  Perhaps providing more context (even if you follow it by declaring that you believe it's for pretty much any kind of business - the reality is there are many business types for which jumping in with no thought is a very bad idea[1]), and not being so aggressive (the very name is an attack, because of the swear word). If you then also included a mention of StartupBritain in a positive way (rather than the veiled "popular belief" reference), it would probably come across as complementary, rather than opposed. Ultimately, you do disagree with StartupBritain's message, which is perfectly fine - I don't see why you feel bad about it. It's ok to disagree and have strong opinions! Just... stand up for them and accept the fact that others will disagree with you too :-) [1] To take an extreme example, an airline. To take a less extreme example, heh, a B2B SaaS startup.
