Not in St Albans, but 27 traders in Gateshead are to lose their livings as a Tesco development removes an indoor market to make way for a 'shopping and leisure complex', according to the Newcastle Journal.
Just a reminder that Tesco's St Albans proposal site claims,
'our developments have helped to boost business for local traders in over 100 market towns'.
Compare that to the Gateshead trader who told the Journal,
"Tesco are a law unto themselves. Four or five years ago, the plans included a market and I was offered a place. But now they've made no calculation for anybody but themselves."
