Rejected petition: Eyemouth new food shop needed with cash machine
Rejected on
Eyemouth is a fishing town which is very busy but we have one food shop coop expensive I need the government to help put a Sainsbury’s local or Tesco local in the town to make life better for all the residents and holiday makers and for all the villages and towns that are surrounding Eyemouth
I want the government to see how much Eyemouth is a very popular holiday town and only having one shop that has control of the only cash machine in all of Eyemouth that never has cash in it! I know we have tried to get another food shop however coop put a stop to it which is very unfair on families like myself and other especially the older residents!
