We had planned to be protesting again in front of Streatham Hill Tesco on Saturday the 20th. The Tesco board meeting yielded a firm commitment to deliver the Hub development, but not necessarily as agreed per the existing planning applications stipulations and section 106 requirements. We await the full detail of the decision and will announce any analysis of the situation we arrive at here on the website as soon as we can. Given the history of this development there is still all to play for. Check back here often!

Many thanks!
