New Tescos at Titnore, Worthing Attacked

Barry | 10.03.2010 16:12

In the early hours of Monday morning, the new Tescos by Titnore Woods protest site was attacked. The locks were super glued and the messages "TESCOS SUCKS" and quite simply "Go away" were spraypainted accross the windows of the front entrance.

Shortly afterwards one person was arrested and is waiting to be charged. Most likely to be joint enterprise of criminal damage.

Tesco now controls over 30% of the grocery market in the UK. In 2009, the supermarket chain announced profits of over £3bn. Growing evidence indicates that Tesco's success is partly based on trading practices that are having serious consequences for suppliers, farmers and workers worldwide, local shops and the environment.
In recent years tey have been building more and more site of ecological interest.

Way to fight for the working class...

I mean if Tescos closes down branches after petty attacks like that there's no way it will lead to hundreds of people been laid off and been left out of work is there?

Bunch of muppets...
