I am horrified to learn that a company as huge as Sainsburys (Asked to leave for a peck on the cheek, The Argus October 14) has made a pathetic attempt to sweep this under the carpet with a £100 charity contribution to the girls who were humiliated in their store.

What century do they live in?

I would urge everyone who can to show that we will not allow this medieval attitude in a free society .

Let’s not go backwards in time.
