NorthernStar Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 no one is forced to shop at tesco or anywhere else! if people want local shops then all they have to do is support them I fear that people are being forced to limit their choices somewhat these days with the economy as it is failing many people in favour of huge profits for big business. I think your apparent theory of pure capitalism working is looking more and more flawed as time goes on. Large bluechip companies can and are running stores at a loss, the effect of this is hitting small retailers and suppliers hard, putting many people out of business allowing standards as a whole to drop for most people. The kind of people who control these types of companies are notoriously ruthless and selfish individuals who are quite happy to run the race to the bottom regardless of the ultimate consequences to our nation and infact the world at large. I support the actions of protests against this uncontrolled greed driven hiding to nowhere for the sake of common decency and fair play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eastbank Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 lifes not fair but it doesnt stop people fighting for it to be otherwise women would still be unable to vote and be less than men slavery would still exist gay men would be locked up for life etc etc so you are comparing shopping at tesco......with the suffragettes, slavery, and anti-gay.........why fight tesco anyway.....when we were lads we liked to fight but not against shop windows...they cannot fight back....squatters like i said contribute nothing but like a free ride....
