Guide dog thrown out of tesco!

What happened should not have happened. There are around two million people in the UK registered as blind (I don't know how many fewer rely on dogs).

However, this is not news. This is not outrage. This is not offensive. Someone's messed up - it is far from their finest hour.

However, it has been dealt with, doubtless staff have been given a dressing down and the customer has been shown some good will. But apparently an apology is demanded, and only if it comes from the right department and store.

Less hysteria and more personal empathy would deal with these situations far more effectively. Slow news day.

So what if its a guide dog?

That changes nothing, Tesco had full right to do so, under no circumstances do I want to see a dog at me groceries.

This is what happens when you employ foreigners.

Is that a shot at me?

Cant wait till we replace all these foreigners with finely tuned and British made Chavs.

This day will make every Briton proud to be British.

No touching!

Its discrimination against blind dogs. Poor things. I bet this was racially motivated, in the name of the religion of peas.

Is this a pastafarian spin off religion?

Why would the dog want peas?
