The St Albans Review and Observer covers Tesco's promise to look at its derelict buildings on London Road today. It also reveals that Tesco owns 60 properties in the area, of which 16 are derelict.
Local Green Party spokesperson, Simon Grover, spoke for many local residents in the article, when he said,
"[Tesco] is just spinning this out in the hope that local people will just give up".
Elsewhere in the same paper, and from the other side of the political spectrum, Cllr Teresa Heritage, Leader of the Conservative Group on St Albans Council, writes a letter arguing that the council should compulsarily purchase the Tesco site and use it for the logical purpose of new housing. Tesco has once more succeeded in uniting all political parties against its plans.
