Brighton and Hove Council is to be congratulated on the adroit way it has pulled the rug out from under opponents of the Sainsbury's scheme for the Brighton Station goods yard site.
Brighton Urban Design and Development (BUDD) and others can now stop trying to prevent a new supermarket on the site killing off businesses in the North Laine, because the council has done it already by quadrupling the cost of on-street parking to £2 per hour. I'll be shopping in Eastbourne in future.
