It is also not PC to keep a Brownie in a box.
It will soon be the case that you are not allowed to say Brownie at all.

This will cause Tesco trouble as they sell double non PC Chocolate Brownies!
We're all doomed!

Report here about further Tesco takeovers. The firm also talks about its "offer" - not any special offer but using this word in general, weird.

Notice that the picture shows another Tesco building which looks like all the others.

This article, though, suggests that women are turning against Tesco.

Tesco is now suing for libel in England and Thailand. It feels vulnerable...

Here is a piece about the way stores are coping with rising price of ingredients and the effect on suppliers. Tesco chief says that he hangs around in stores (Church Road?) and now hears people on cellphones discussing the price of items with others.

I am Sure Lidl and Walmart are happy about your choice.

It is very regrettable that we have had to take legal action in Thailand.
"We had hoped that the individuals concerned would apologise for the false and highly damaging allegations they had made about our business over a sustained period of time but despite numerous attempts to get them to set the record straight, this has not happened."

And of course this is not Tesco UK
so most could not care about this
in these New Labour Harder times.

Yep Tesco's are also suing the Grauniad at the moment for their story about how they have been using off shore accounts to doge UK tax.

Tesco's are scum, plain and simple.

"Around 150 members of the public are trained and paid to be full-time Tesco testers. Their job description requires everything from commenting on brie to deciding if a bunch of flowers is wrapped in the right coloured cellophane to crawling in and out of camping tents. Only when Tesco is 100pc satisfied with its food and leisure products will it ship them out to its stores."


Nothing new with this
All big stores do this,
of course Evil Tesco go to the papers all the time
with Gimmicks like this.

Perhaps a certain chain of bakers is in need of a fresh team of testers?

What inside information does LTNS have to show that Tesco has flinched at discovering that some in Sussex are taking a stand against the Thailand outrage?

On a serious note, this twat needs locking up for a very long time or deporting depending on roots.
