Fresh fears over Tesco dominance after key Competition Commission victory

The commission had planned to implement a rule banning supermarket chains from opening new stores in areas where their market shares are already too large.

Mother refused permission to buy wine by Tesco - in case she gave them to her daughter

Karen Dumelow was queuing to pay for her weekly shopping with daughter Emily when the checkout assistant demanded to see her daughter's ID.
But when Emily could not produce any, Mrs Dumelow, a fraud investigator, was told she could not buy the two bottles of Tesco finest white wine.
She protested to three senior members of staff at the store in Portsmouth, Hants, but they told her that they backed the decision made by the female checkout assistant.
Mrs Dumelow, from Milton, near Portsmouth, was forced to put aside the two bottles of wine and pay for the rest of the shopping.
She then sent Emily off to the car and used the same till, manned by the same checkout assistant, to pay for the alcohol.

Tesco chief executive Sir Terry Leahy has signalled that the retailer is willing to back genetically modified (GM) foods, saying consumer attitudes have changed and it has a vital part to play.

He added that there also seemed to be a growing appreciation by people that GM was likely to play "a vital role in feeding the world, in adapting to climate change and indeed in producing some of these more nutritional products – foods - that people will need".
