Tesco Dancing

Now here's a curious thing. Gareth and I have been invited to a meeting with Tesco by Green Issues to discuss their Crown Street store.

Green Issues are a local company specialising in controversial planning applications. This is their 'mission statement':

Our mission is to support our clients in securing planning approvals for a range of developments through high quality political, communications and consultation services.

...or as the rest of us would characterise it, spin.

As far as I'm aware, the Tesco in Crown Street already has planning permission. As long as they stick to the terms and conditions of their existing planning permission, what possible purpose could they have in wanting to meet ward councillors? 

I can't think of one.

Ooh, intriguing. I wonder what sneaky litle trick they have up their dirty sleeves?

I hope you tell us when you find out. Maybe they're just looking for an excuse to justify spending their clients money...
