Stop Tesco started gathering signatures for a petition calling for an alternative to the Tesco development in London Road at the St Albans City Market on Saturday 24th March. We were amazed to gather over 700 names in just one day. Almost everyone we spoke to including business owners, tourists and local residents thought that the proposals were bad for St Albans.
Tesco's plans to build a store in Tolworth were recently derailed by 3,000 signatures. We hope that when we get more than this number Tesco will back off. We need to achieve this quickly, and need help. If you'd be willing to spend some time in the City centre or just visiting people in your street, please let us know - click on the Volunteer page on www.stoptesco.com to start.
