"Boris Johnson is set to tear up a massive regeneration scheme in London, in a bid to spark new life into Brent Cross shopping centre. The Mayor is considering whether to 'de-couple' the plans to revamp Britain's oldest mall from the wider 20-year regeneration of Cricklewood.

"Sarah Teather, the Liberal Democrat MP for Brent Central, said:

"If there are going to be major changes to the current plans, it is vitally important that they are published, and local residents are consulted."

"The scheme - said to be the biggest in London outside the Olympics - attracted more than 500 objections, with many fearing more congestion on the North Circular."
