Talk:Criticism of Tesco

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] National protests

"Tesco's 2004 Adminstore acquisition led to local and national protests." "National" meaning which country?martianlostinspace 18:59, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Changed "national" to "UK-wide". The reference refers to the Office of Fair Trading, a British agency.martianlostinspace 19:01, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Well I could be pedantic and point out that UK is the UK of GB and NI and I can't remember any opposition in Northern Ireland to the move. However that is indeed being pedantic so I won't! Mark83 19:53, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

I can't believe their poor use of grammar is in this list of criticisms! Surely this should be placed in the trivia section or some section like that.--Mofs 18:50, 11 March 2007 (UTC)

What an inane page this is. e.g. Criticism about misspelling "dessert" on a sign! Some contibutors need to get out more.--WikiMart (talk) 18:22, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

Tesco has become renowned for its grammatical howlers. IMO the company's status as the UK's largest retailer means it has a duty not to contribute to the worsening standard of written English. Its employees who are responsible for public communication shouldn't be in the job if they don't know the basics. Chris 42 (talk) 12:25, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Mr Othman-Khalid

The Mr Othman-Khalid case is typical of labour reations in British tescos stores.--86.29.243.217 (talk) 17:35, 8 June 2008 (UTC)
