Quote ="Bonzo"Interesting thought - I've seen no mention in any of the reports people have linked to, of how the project is going to be financed.'"
I don't know for sure, but I'd suggest two things that might help but I'm only making an informed speculation .
1: One of the partners is perhaps a Supermarket and as we know they generally have the clout and the resources to make it happen THIS IS JUST MY THEORY
2: BV is an easily saleable piece of real estate which already has full planning permission with no blast zones etc and could basically be redeveloped immediately.
Seriously, it's still just a paper plan at the moment just like yours. Just like I often say about your project I to will believe it when I see it, but it's a lot better than where we were.
