A fascinating, grim article in The Guardian newspaper by Anna Minton. Recommended reading for anyone interested in the way Brownhills is being carved up for the retail behemoth.
‘This town has been sold to Tesco’ – Are towns built by the UK’s leading supermarket the future of urban development?
I’ll be returning to the subject of our retail future in a post later this week. Thanks for your contributions, and it’s interesting to note that the Monday after I posted about the new Tesco development, the Express & Star picked up on the story (Hmmmm….) and my post does rather seem to have caught Walsall Council, Tesco and the local press on the hop. It seems odd somehow, that one of my articles seems to have apparently set the tone of the debate.
