Re: Should we be letting supermarkets/chainstores establish in our town?

in Blackburn we have 6 supermarkets...morrisons, asda, (several) tesco's, aldi, lidl and netto, even though they do create jobs they also kill jobs too....there was only 1 english butcher between Accrington and Blackburn (i mean between blackburn rd and accy rd) he wasnt making much profit thanx to cheaper supermarkets, his shop was just passed intack traffic lights, earlier this year he had to close the shop due to lack of trade, its not fair that such things are happening, i would rather go round a traditional market and buy traditional local food than go to the supermarkets which arent environmentally friendly, they import most of there groceries from other countries which doesn't help the earth at all.
