Confidence and Supply
It is very high time to make the supermarkets fund investment in agriculture and small business, determined in close consultation with the National Farmers’ Union and the Federation of Small Businesses, by means of a windfall tax, to be followed if necessary by a permanently higher flat rate of corporation tax. In either case, there must be strict regulation to ensure that the costs of this are not passed on to suppliers, workers, consumers, communities or the environment.

It is also time to limit supermarkets to one per town and stop their sale of alcohol to give the local pubs a chance, newspapers to give local newsagents a chance, and cigarettes to give both pubs and newsagents a chance.
ReplyDeleteSupermarkets are greedy devourers of anythimg and everything and have no interest whatsoever in local communities or their welfare.
Oh, I wouldn't go that far.
