1. Ok? He owns Tesco 🤷‍♂️ I’d have a million a month if I owned it 😄

   currently downvoted by 12 people who would 100% pay themselves a million a month if they could. 😂

2. Bet he doesn’t have to go out taffing loaves of bread.

   He can pay someone to do it for him! TY,IHAW.

3. If he’s paying proper taxes on it then I don’t mind. Plus it’s a private company so they can pay him what they like. Some of the highest earners are the biggest tax payers.

4. It’s his company, he can pay himself whatever he desires

5. The same amount he saved by not paying minimal wage to his staff last month due to a nice little loophole.

6. I thought we can’t have pay rises because they cause inflation and we need to accept that we are poorer.

7. Unfortunately I have contributed a huge amount of my own money into his pay 🤬 they have such a monopoly in central London. Every other street… is a Tesco metro or express

8. Given that Tesco is doing a roaring trade compared to its competition, I’d expect his pay to increase. I’m a shareholder (nothing massive) and it’s grown more than a lot of the stuff I invested in. Anyone can own a piece of Tesco and benefit.

9. Crazy how all these companies have been allowed to inflate prices

10. This is so great to hear as myself and others struggle with Tesco’s price increases on the shelves

11. Man who is good at his job gets pay rise

    Why is this news?

    We want the CEOs of (ethical) companies operating in this country to succeed. Their success is good for everyone

12. Why?!! What for?! Have you learnt to spend that 10 million faster?!!

13. Right, if they didn’t do that he’d leave. Which would be bad. I’m sure he’s very irreplaceable.

14. Maoam pinballs at the coop are £1.35 now
    They used to be £1 even during the price inflation

    How tf can this be allowed
