It is worth noting that Tesco's could make donations at any time they wish - not making one iota of difference to their bottom line. £1.7billion a few months ago.
They need to ask themselves a few questions about diplomacy, necessity, need - and management skills. There is a war that is ongoing and extra funds are always required. They should ask H4H. I personally think they are way out of order - WHATEVER THEIR REASON IS.
True but whether the war is ongoing or not has nothing to do with Tesco.
Whether any of us like it or not you will find that there will be a sizeable proportion of Tesco customers and employees who do not agree with the War, half their stores are outside of the UK.
While people may again say so what !! I think anybody who has a pension plan or investments would disagree as Tesco has a sizeable proportion of UK pension fund investment for the future which relies on the success of Tesco worldwide.
As someone has already stated Tesco contributed £70 million directly to charities as well as lots of indirect support.
Its not Tesco's job to give to charities because Govts refuses to provide properly for ex service personnel.
