Why would it upset people?
Although the report does not actually say if they were breaching the act or not. Just that the claimants claimed they were and that Tesco have added them to the list anyway.

I understand your frustration, but in case you haven’t noticed, the country is going through an emergency such as we haven’t seen in over seventy years, and systems everywhere are creaking at the seams or breaking. It’s unfortunate that Ocado have slipped up, but it happens. You don’t have to have Waitrose food, any supermarket will do, so rather than making everyone’s life just that little bit harder when everyone is trying their best, use one of the other delivery services, or ask a neighbour or a friend to do some shopping for you.3

If it is not working with one on-line supermarket, try another. Waiting for the MP to get involved is going to be a slow process.
My Mum got the shielding letter and she registered with Tesco. Although there were no normal slots available, Tesco referenced her against the extremely vulnerable group list they have from NHS and that gives her access to a different batch of delivery slots. She gets deliveries easily when she want and not needing massive notice.2 -
