Letter to the editor: I am disappointed that English Heritage has not recognised the qualities of the Greenwich Sainsbury’s building and why it should be protected, despite a very strong campaign.
The real blame here lies with Labour councillors who used their votes on the planning board to push Ikea’s planning application through in the first place. This is the wrong location for an Ikea and will bring yet more congestion to our roads – as well as seeing Greenwich lose this iconic building.
COUNCILLOR MATT HARTLEY, Conservative parliamentary candidate for Greenwich and Woolwich
