It's almost one baby step of progress I guess...

But I wonder what happened to this idea: https://www.1news.co.nz/2025/03/30/willis-floats-break-up-of-supermarket-duopoly-to-drive-competition/

Yeah I'm surprised they bothered to make the threat at all 😂 The duopoly definitely took it veerry seriously 🤣
