I FEEL the Wyre Forest district councillors' had no option but to pass Tesco plans for a Stourport store.

They can only reject an application on planning grounds. Not liking the idea or a not in my back yard' attitude are not planning grounds.

If they had protested and turned it down, Tesco would have appealed and won. Then the council would have been liable to Tesco costs.
