You'll be directed to another place to pay in any supermarket if the till person is under 18. I don't think it's that big a deal. |

We don't get directed to another till if the person is under 18 Gwynne, they press the bell and the supervisor comes and authorises it. |

Perhaps if M&S in their wisdom (just to accomodate ethnic minorities) decide not to sell those items that they object to it may solve the delemma.However it is a retail outfit i/e a Shop,not a Church, Chapel or Mosque,therefore poeple who are employed there should serve what customers want,not pick and choose.M&S should remember lose your customer, lose your profit,no profit ,no jobs or Company. and another one will bite the dust. |

It will take more than this to stop me using M&S. One of my favourite shops and the best for food. |

I often go shopping with a vegetarian, and as we load /unload the trolley, she wont touch any meat products that I have bought whether its pre- packed, or not............. |

A solution would be to have more supervisors/runners. |

What on earth are devout Muslims doing working at an establishment that condones the selling of pig and alcohol products anyway. |

This calls to mind a secretary I knew left an extremely well paid position to take up a position at a Uni because she felt that tobacco manufacture did not fit in with her beliefs. |
