LETTERS – Spending elsewhere is no shock

I’m not surprised shoppers in Spalding are spending money elsewhere with recent comments from councillors who were absolutely apoplectic at drivers who flaunt parking regulations.

Wake up councillors, if you make it prohibitive and expensive shoppers will simply go elsewhere.

Town centres are not the magnet anymore by a long, long way.
