Yes should shoppers boycott Tesco, who showed discrimination to a Blind woman at their Belsize Road store in London, where a Student at The London Central School of speech and drama who is Blind was aske to leave the store because she had her Guide Dog with her.
Maya Makri was shopping in this afore mentioned store when she was approaching the checkout to pay, with her friend when the cashier shouted out "NO PETS ALLOWED"
Despite there being a high viz on the dog to show it is a guide dog Ms Makri was asked to leave the store even after other members of the public in the store backed her up, yet she was still asked to leave the store.
A Tesco Spokesman said "This clearly should never have happened and we will contact Ms Makri directly to apologise. We do allow Guide dogs in stores and have reminded our staff of that"
Well obviously on this occasion it did happen, and the dog was not allowed.
Guide Dogs for the blind are finding that People with guide dogs are finding these problems increasingly common in the UK today.
Is this discrimination by Tesco, well on this occasion by Tesco, in my opinion yes.
One voice, My Voice, One View, My View.
Stay strong and believe.
