Fight the Asda Crossharbour development
DISTRICT CENTRE - YES, HUGE DEVELOPMENT NO
The Isle of Dogs needs a decent District Centre, not another massive housing development unaffordable to local people.

Why is this important?
Public consultation on the Asda site is a sham. RER, the company promoting this, haven't listened to a word said to them. They want to maximise profits by squeezing even more expensive high-rise apartments on the site; more than double the existing consent. They try to sweeten this by offering a new school in the wrong place, next to Cubitt Town, and a theatre we don't need and didn't ask for. Of course the petrol station people want isn't included!
