Do we really need yet another Tesco?

2:49pm Friday 25th August 2006 in Letters

DOES this borough really need another Tesco? Anyone who thinks that it would bring people into the centre of Stourbridge is misguided in my view.

I agree the comment that this is all about Tesco; they have no interest in supporting Stourbridge, after all, why would they? All they are concerned with is strengthening their grip on the retailing throat of this country!

We can only speculate on the reasons why some councillors might want to inflict this on their town.

And if you still think of it from the point of view of bringing shoppers to the centre of Stourbridge can you imagine a more ridiculous place to build it?

It's like building it on an island connected by a narrow causeway to one end of the town.

Come on councillors please, tell them to get lost and go and ruin some else's town!
