Inverness in the Scottish Highlands is a small and pretty city but shocking statistics were released a little while ago suggesting that 53% of all retail spending in it goes into the coffers of the three Tesco supermarkets. One of them is a huge hypermarket in the out-of-town development on the Aberdeen road.
Now Tesco wants to build a fourth superstore but many local people think this is too much. The High Street is already suffering as little shops go to the wall and an online petition has been set up to try to stop the development.
Thanks!
