Tesco at Little Lever - Mr Magurk's letter to the Bolton News



Councillor connections

I have read the article about Tesco in Little Lever, and the letter by Paul Richardson and both are right on the button.

However, what amazes me is nobody has connected the fact that the chairman of the forum, Cllr Maureen Connell, is the wife of Cllr Anthony Connell, chairman of the planning committee.
There must have been conflicts of interest.

When the store is built and the novelty factor has worn off, I just wonder how much notice the likes of both Cllrs Connell will take of the residents of Little Lever over the traffic congestion and rat runs created by their pet project, Tesco.

Or is this all part of Bolton’s plans to gridlock Bolton completely so that they can bring in congestion charging.
