Come on Tesco- you are a part of our community- give Paul his job back. He was there rain or shine moving the trollies. You knew he had issues and allowances should be made. I saw him outside the store yesterday and he was devastated. Have a heart and give a vulnerable man his job back.

Why anyone would want to work for a corporate Mafia such as Tesco is beyond me, but firing a guy who's special circumstances were well known to the management for the simple reasons of illness related to those same special circumstances is reprehensible. Show some compassion, show some empathy, show some humanity and re instate this man, who's job is his life.

Paul is a friendly ,genuine and liked character of the ilminster community having also worked wth Paul for 8 years I'm really shocked and upset not to see him doing his trolley job at Tesco . I feel they have been unfair in sacking him and would love to see him reinstated in his job. Melanie Baldwin.

Tesco should be totally decusted with there actions..this poor lad is not only a local lad but love his job. Never had he a day off without notifying tesco. He works hard and such a lovely freindly person. Despite his long lasting health. He is polite full and helps if he can. Tesco has lost a very admiral worker. Hopefully he sort legal advice and has great foundations to sue tesco...you cant just fire a good loyal worker like that! Shame on tesco. I sure as hell will be avoiding spending at tesco from now on. Here i come Morrison and asda

Think this is wrong, Paul already has enough problems in his life. When he was taken on they knew about these circumstances. Give him a chance, don't knock him down at this early stage of his working life. Very disappointing.

Paul was always helpful and kind. That is the sort of staff member you should be holding onto Tesco.

Tesco is and has been a blot on Ilminster's landscape and sacking Paul makes things even worse.

What's wrong with these people, they don't live in the real world.

Tesco ought to be ashamed for sacking an autistic person, when he was there he really put his all into doing his job efficiency.

Sometimes very big businesses make local mistakes. What really matters is what they do next. Tesco still has the opportunity to protect their brand by doing the right thing for Paul and the community that so clearly values his contribution.

I have a member of my family with difficulties so know first hand about discrimination. Paul is well known in this loyal and supportive town and clearly he will be devastated to be unemployed. I would ask those higher powers at Tescos who possess both a heart and a brain to reconsider their position.
