The largest urban shopping mall in Europe opened in east London this week amid hopes that foreign shoppers might bring in the cash that British shoppers seem unwilling to part with.

The massive new Westfield Stratford City mall – with its 300 shops, 70 restaurants and bars, a 17-screen cinema and 1.9m sq feet of retail space – opens on Tuesday in Stratford at the site of next year's Olympic Games, at a time when one in seven shops in Britain are boarded up as retailers struggle.

One financial expert said experts could not say that the project would have been cancelled had anyone been able to predict the economic slowdown, but with the capital awash with rising numbers of tourists, it could well be down to London's cachet with fashion-conscious Europeans to keep our stores afloat.
