I think half the small business owners who complain about all TESCO's evil tactics and big corporate muscle are just jealous that they didn't think of them, or invest their profits into expansion.
I don't.....i shop at Morrisons. Tesco are the antichrist and must be stopped at all costs!
Maybe thats going a little too far........:smile:
it was about tesco destroying the community............police cars are always a target when a protest turns into a riot situation, they become your enemy not your friend
I'm always a bit skeptical of "Tesco destroying the community". If the community didn't shop at Tesco, they wouldn't be able to destroy anything. It's not like Tesco executives petrol-bomb local shops overnight so there's only Tesco left.
So surely it's the community destroying itself by patronizing Tesco instead of the local stores?
Someone told me earlier that the Tesco Express there doesn't sell booze. Haven't checked to see if it's true. If it is, there's not too much point looting it really... :-P
cos its supposed to be in between the two?
it IS over a supermarket so is a protest aspect to it
what's the betting that the protesters were having a normal protest with no trouble and then rent-a-mob turned up to have a good barney... Like at every other riot.

Yeah, definitely.
I saw a protest walk against building the Tesco, before it was built, and it was all very civilised, seemed to be a genuine peaceful protest by people who had taken an interest in what was going on.
I think this one divides public opinion a bit, some are for it and some against. It does seem to be the case though that if you were standing at any Tesco in central Bristol you could probably walk to another one within about 2 minutes... :confused:

It couldnt be a worse time go get publicity cos of the wedding no one will even think about it.
inbetween all the royal wedding crap
some of it just seems like opportunist looting tbh.
If this was a story about students in Paris it would be a "riot"

They have most probably been told to damp it down.
