You are nothing if not vocal about the issue of supermakets. We've received some emails saying they "infuriate" you or they "have too much power". But some of you think they "do an absolutely marvellous job" and that you are big fans.听
In Jon Manel's second report, he听assesses public opinion on supermarkets, using the details of our specially commissioned poll.听 This was carried out by GFK/NOP between 13th and 22nd of July, interviewing 2001 adults (aged 16 and over) by telephone.
