Some ISPs may provide their own newsgroup servers, or at least a server operated on their behalf. The retention time for content on those ISP servers will only be a few days at most. I have no idea if Tesco bother with their own newsgroup services.

If you need decent newsgroup access, with lengthy retention (excluding the copyright protected stuff that is subject to take down notices), you need to subscribe to newsgroup server providers such as giganews, astraweb, supernews, and many many more. There will be a cost to that subscription. For privacy you may wish to look at providers offering SSL access.
