http://www.economist.com/style-guide/singular-or-plural Note while 'just' a style guide, The Economist - like me - seems (note not 'seem' ;)) not to consider "Tesco" _et al_ to be collective nouns _per se_. > A government, a party, a company (whether Tesco or Marks
> and Spencer) and a partnership (Skidmore, Owings &
> Merrill) are all **it** and take a singular verb.
