Happy Holidays
Help us spread the word about the
non-union Fresh and Easy.
You may have heard about or seen
the new grocery store called "Fresh & Easy"
that is coming to our neighborhoods. The problem is this
non union
store is neither fresh or easy. The parent
corporation called Tesco PLC, is one of the largest and most
aggressive corporations in the world. News papers call it the
"Wal-Mart of the UK."
Here are some of Tesco's
records:
PESTICIDE and SPOILED
FOOD:- Tesco received one of the biggest
fines ever for violations of food safety laws and for selling
out-of-date, spoiled food in 2004. (Source: Evening Slandered News,
UK)
CHILD LABOR AND SUB-MINIMUM WAG
JOBS:-Tesco sold good produced by children and
young as twelve and used contractors to pay workers in
England less than the
minimum wage. (Source: Guardian
Newspaper,
UK)
TESCO NOT A FRIEND OF THE
ENVIONMENT:- The National Consumer Council gave
Tesco a grade of 'D' for environmental responsibility. (Source: National Consumer
Council)
