First public meeting attracts hundreds

The first public meeting of people concerned about the prospect of a Tesco store on Cambridge’s Mill Road attracted hundreds of people. There was much concern for the future of one of Cambridge’s most cosmopolitan areas if the proposed shop goes ahead. Several put their names down for the Committee being formed to co-ordinate action, and this website has been set up as a central point of information.

Chris Hull from the campaign which managed to keep Tesco away from Unthank Road in Norwich came to the meeting on Thursday and shared the experiences he and his fellow campaigners have had there.

    Lots of really good ideas on what steps people could take next. Good to see local councillors of all persuasions speaking out alongside everyone else too.
