Darlington
In November, Tesco's plans for a town centre store were defeated after a petition signed by over 10,900 residents was presented to the council.
St Albans
Tesco have been in St Albans for six years. Their plan was to build a superstore, new houses and other shops on a site it intended to expand by buying nine other pieces of land. Now the deals remain incomplete and the local area has gone to "rack and ruin" with shops closing or derelict. Local campaigners claim that Tesco, which made £2.2 bn in profits during 2006, is deliberately stringing out the planning process to acquire as much land as possible.
A local resident, who wished to remain anonymous, said the arrival of Tesco had affected her community greatly, "Tesco has no place here. They don't care for the community and feel so powerful that they can happily destroy a community, its local businesses and character, for the sake of not letting anyone else have it. They just think this area can be rebuilt again around them. We can't let this happen, they're making our lives hell."
