Our 200th post on this blog! And still there's no sign of a Tesco planning application for St Albans - wonder how many posts before we win... (maybe a sweepstake is in order).
One reason why we have so much to write about is Tesco's ability to get up the noses of people all over the country by trying to build on seemingly every square inch of concrete in its ongoing mission to sell everything to everyone...
Today for example, the Derby Evening Telegraph reports on the formation of another protest group (BATS - Belper Against Tesco Superstore). The main local issues again are traffic and the threat to local business. Again, Tesco is unsure of the time scale, a spokesman for Tesco saying,
"Although it has not been finalised, we're likely to exhibit finalised plans in Belper in January".
All we can say is good luck BATS - prepare for a long campaign!
PS - you can find out more about BATS here.
