READY

What a strange story. John Jackson (labour) who is actually an ok guy (there is only a handful) but crops up on various campaigns that are politically motivated. My hat of to anyone who tries but there seems to be a lot of information missing.
You would have thought that in the great supermarket quest that all the information would have been gathered before going to press, obviously not. Why?
Do you not think that the site has all ready been considered? The responses from the many supermarkets contacted over the last 18 months with regards the site was surprising. Amazingly the site is too big for many. The alterations to create a junction again surprisingly came in at a very high cost after listening to what WMDC highways considered passable. The distance from the town centre although short to some is considered another reason why the site is unviable to supermarkets.
Then what about the owner of the land? They have been involved with all the talks. They are a business. They see a supermarket as un-viable hence why they have just renewed their planning application for houses on the site.
Funny fact for Mr Jackson this week is that within the village green application (because of its complaints by Clive + Dick) it has been stated that off road bike use (Mr Jackson’s very valid attempt on the stacks to control the motorbikes) will be back prosecuted for trespass. My opinion is he is getting dragged in.
As for rumors the plans are linked on this site as to what is going on.
To make any significant improvement to the retail outlet in Station lane a super market is needed close by. The retailers know this and the supermarkets know that they need the retailers.
