Contractors on site – but still no permissions

Tesco’s contractors have now started work on the site. The campaign would like to remind everyone of two very important things:
1. This does not mean that Tesco can open. Tesco can do what they like to the inside of the site but that doesn’t mean that they have the necessary permissions or delivery access to open. It
also doesn’t mean that they are likely to get an alcohol licence. This is designed to intimidate us and the council; don’t let yourself be intimidated.
2. If you talk to any of the contractors working on the site, please be polite, however you feel about what they are doing. Getting angry with the contracters won’t hurt Tesco, in fact, it’s
probably exactly what Tesco would want.
