Employment costs for one and workers right for another. Don't forget it is not just wages but employes now have to contribute to their National Insurance

Those workers right are a minefield I should know when we sold our business and had to protect their rights legally, or it could have cost us under ACAS up to £72,000 per employee

Brought about by past complaints and competition from other retailers methinks.
Yes, competition is a good thing and usually benefits the consumer.

You mean the cornettos that have been reduced in both size and weight Terry due to shrink inflation.
