Are the riots in Bristol a sign of things to come?..
Apparently locals were/are unhappy about the opening of a new Tescos.
I have noticed another Tescos in Dalston - there's already a Tesco a 'stones throw' away off Sandringahm Road.. walk up a little further and you will find a Tesco in Stokenewington
Head the other way and you'll find one off Mare St. Hmmm
Are LA's not able to regulate?
It's the same with betting shops..
The Localism Bill wont really mean a 'Crock' if residents are powerless to put a halt to big businesses they feel stifle small local business - and bring little to communities
Although Tescos will hopefully hire local residents maybe part of their corporate policy should be to invest in developing communities through the funding of local projects.. do they do that?
Anyway
Looks like we may be in for a hot summer in more ways than one...
The Jam released this in 1981
A few months before the Brixton Riots
Margaret Thacther was in power - we had a Conservative Government
Tension in the air
I was almost 13
Bubbling away in the backdrop to my carefree youth was social and civil unrest that -appears not much different from today..
Conservatism
Sunny days
The Jam
Oh yes.. care free days... enjoy..
