Tesco to close its call centre in Wales
 
Slightly old news but I just needed to comment:

Loss of more jobs in Wales, Cardiff... poor people.

https://www.theguardian.com/business...cardiff-dundee

As for the Tesco's moto: EVERY LITTLE HELPS.

I say stuff Tesco...:mad: I am shopping at the German stores from no on.

People suspect a bit of incentive has passed their way via the Scottish parliament. When that runs out they will no doubt start sniffing about for another.

By that logic a) Tesco (or any other UK company) would never be able to close anything anywhere and b) you'll be supporting foreign owned company which are ultimately taking profits out of the UK. Not very joined up...

After eating a few meals at a friends house that had meat from those german stores I'm glad we don't shop at them as the quality is well below what we normally eat and we don't buy the greatest meat where we shop. How about going to another british supermarket instead of tesco rather then give your money to a foreign company.

Most meat from Lidl and ALDI is UK sourced, Tesco not so much.

Personally when it comes to fresh meat we have always favoured Sainsbury's.

Well i can tell when I'm eating meat from aldi and lidl but as we don't shop at tesco I can't comment on their standard but like Den the meat from sainsburys is very good even their discount line and definately better.

Sad indeed Den, I worked at a family butchers part time when at school all those years ago.

Everything you can get from a supermarket from fresh meat to cooked meats were all produced in the shop. Happy days long gone.

l remember decades ago when we used to go to the local butcher with our mother and now all the small local shops that were there have been replaced by two foreign supermarkets.
