Tesco 'struggling' and needing rescue from the likes of Buffet?? That's tough! LOL!

Perhaps they've grown too much and should stop!
Let's all send them that message by objecting to ANY form of Tesco being built in Glastonbury or anywhere else!

Criticism of Tesco
Wikipedia shows that all is not well in the 'state of Tesco'!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_Tesco
Why would anyone in public office, in receipt of public funds, want to misuse that public office and recommend acceptance of a company as well known for corruption and litigation as Tesco?

"Tesco-isation"

Tesco cheap labour scheme
So this is the type of cheap labour jobs that Glastonbury T.C and Mendip D.C want for locals? Is this why G.T.C and M.D.C are flouting both local and national planning laws?
http://www.broadsheet.ie/2011/09/16/tesco-want-shelf-stackers-for-christmas/
35 hours a week for £50 on top of benefits? For a 'internship' learning how to stack shelves? And maybe get a full time job at the end? It's little more than slave labour!
Surely GTC and MDC would be better investing in local jobs with local companies, local business units, companies that treat workers fairly and pay proper wages? But what is proposed instead, is useless cheap labour jobs with a well-known multinational company that on average causes 276 local job losses for every large supermarket it builds (statistic courtesy of Tescopoly) and removes money from local circulation. And the same company is famous for bringing imported foods which replace local producers and local markets!
The only explanation for allowing such an abusive and thieving multinational into local communities around Britain is the level of payoffs that Tesco gives to the local councils.
With £6m given by Tesco to Somerset C.C as an 'incentive' for the new Bridgewater super store, and with S.C.C owned by SouthwestOne Ltd (IBM), it is easy to see who is really profiting from the introduction of Tesco stores into local areas. With the extensive cutbacks in public services being implemented across Somerset, it certainly is NOT the people of Somerset who are being served by such large payoffs!
All comments welcome...

Support locally...
With the extreme pressure on the British economy as a result of bank bailouts and support for unlawful wars, it really is time to support local production and local independent retailers.

Local resilience means that as much as possible it "Must Be British"!
