    Being a supporter of the Town Centre and Town Centre shops, I support this move.

    I must admit though that even the Tesco at Whitfield was allowed to expand to increase its range of non-food items by the last Government's "Office of the Deputy Prime Minister", as it was then known as. The rules have now changed, but not sure exactly how much and how much the philosophy has changed.

    I objected at the time as I said it would not help the Town Centre.

    Tesco "gave" some money to help the Town Centre and some of that was given to TCM, but because of what happened to TCM after Mike Webb left the funding stopped; the last £10,000 was given to Dover Chamber of Commerce for the Dover Business Support Manager's salary - after I was dismissed, so it was never used to help make Dover a "vibrant Town Centre", which was the criteria of the Tesco money, so once again, Dover Chamber of Commerce acted wrongly - sorry Barry.
