Encouraginng each other to be assertive is something that is very important to me!
Relying on others can be very frustrating. People using their own initiative can often achieve far more. Self belief is important!
We llive in a town where this already happens so much . It will be natural for us as to do this more and more..
A news story about what happened when Tesco opened a store in this area of Brostol.
For me, this is a question that is crucial to the future of Ulverston.
What are your views?

I can't imagine why you think the existence of a small Tesco store is ' crucial to the future of Ulverston '. People either make use of it or they avoid it. I have found it useful on occasions i.e.after 10 pm when there is no other shop open.
God I hate Tesco. They blight the high streets of practically every small town in this country and give nothing back to local community based groups and organisations. Also I know they are very cruel in their factory farming operations, particularly as regards chickens.
This need not be. I have several times contacted Tesco HQ to inform them of the experience of my brother in law, a poultry farmer in Donegal. Concerned to treat his flock with care and decency he researched various slaughter methods, finally landing on surely the very best way. The bird is placed on its back whilst another employee places an anaesthetic based enema into its anal canal. The bird immediately falls asleep and is slaughtered.
Everybody (and every thing) is happy. The enemas are made by a local Donegal chemist, so increasing his business, my brother in law employs several local men to administer the enemas and the meat is stress free and sells like hot cakes!
Tesco do not want to know. They, it seems prefer their current barbaric ways and it is for that reason that I am dead set against them. Good luck to the Bristol campaigners.
Whether you hate Tesco or not the poultry anal enema anaesthetic is certainly not the most humane method of slaughtering chickens.
The insertion of the enematic plug into the bird's anal canal is clearly distressing in itself and, due to the chicken's metabolism absorption of the anaesthetic drug is slow and unpredictable.
The only truely humane slaughter method for the birds is, of course, hypnosis.
First developed in the USA, an adept hypno-slaughterman can often put an entire flock into an hypnotic trance in under a minute, after which the birds can be killed in the usual way but totally unaware of what is happening, and thus producing a genuinely stress free carcass.

I was just asking the question and trying to avoid a expressing a view.
I'm very interested in your responses.
Clare clearly has an opinion.
What do others think?
Is this kind of response ever likely here in Ulverston?
Is this the way to deal with companies whose main aim is the making of money without concern as to how?
