Tesco shopper mystified by 'Boris baked beans' on shelf in store with 'austerity sauce'

Shoppers at a Brighton branch of Tesco Express were surprised after spotting a tin of 'Boris value baked beans in austerity sauce'.

At first glance, the blue and white striped tin - which features a price sticker of £2.30 - looks rather like other Tesco value items you might find on the shelf.

However, after a closer look, it becomes clear that the tin isn't a real Tesco product and has been placed on the shelf in protest against the ongoing cost-of-living crisis, which has seen many families struggling to cover the costs of their weekly groceries shop.
