The Shopping Study comprised "the view of key stakeholders.....". Rye and District Chamber of Commerce was not contacted, this body represents businesses in the area but no views were sought.

1% sample of residents is extremely low to form an opinion. I know of no one consulted. What "published data" was used. It has been proved that much published data contains significant errors.

Conclusions drawn without proper consultation.

It would not be appropriate to allow Tesco, an aggressive supermarket, to set up in Rye and destroy the town as has been proved it has already done across the country.
