Tesco on Acre Lane is preparing an application to triple the space on its shop floor, a development that is certain to ruin dozens of local shopkeepers, make traffic and parking in Brixton even more horrific, and reduce consumer choice.
If you sign this petition, you're telling your local councillors not to be bullied by Tesco's wealth and lawyers, to back Brixton market, and rescue London's most exciting high street.
We hit our stride today and it is clear that Brixton refuses to let Tesco bulldoze our local economy. These corporate vultures thought they could steamroll us with their lawyers but they clearly underestimated how much this community values our market.

The traffic down there is already a total nightmare. tripling the floor space is absolute madness.
