SO, LET’S get this straight.

Brighton and Hove City Council operates a secret tendering process for the redevelopment of the King Alfred Leisure Centre and grants the project to their chosen contractor.

And the public get to have a consultation on the plans many months later...?

How does that work exactly? How can this constitute a "meaningful consultation"?

Thank goodness the proposed plans are so awful that the good citizens of Brighton and Hove will never allow such a blight on their seafront.

The other point to bear in mind is that if this development WERE to be erected it would set a precedent leading to a free for all of inappropriate overdevelopment along the entire seafront.

It would most certainly not end here.
