Re: High street collapse
With online shopping on the rise shoppfitters could be out of a job in the future . Another problem is many councils have allowed retail parks to be built on the edges of towns. There are far too many any they blot the landscape

In retail parks you won't get chav types knocking around, which in this country we have a huge number of but they won't want to travel to retail parks 3 to 4 miles away. I know its bad to say but its probably for the best although small business people will take the brunt who rely on big brand names in the street to get shoppers into the town centre.

Amazon and the like will kill off most town centre shops along with the big name brands and the towns will become nothing more then charity shops , coffee shops and real estate agents, It's happened to my town and they just built a big massive Amazon sorting warehouse about 7 - 9 months ago.

Just think of all the tax revenue to pay for the unemployment , reduced wages and tax credits.

Re: High street collapse
Sorry. Forgot to mention all the imported cheap labour to do these jobs in the first place which also qualify for tax credits. If it wasn't for raising money on VAT and fuel duty we'd be fucked.

And the workers being worked to death and not affording them proper toilet breaks. Sounds like a fantastic place to work.

I realised I needed a bottle opener yesterday at midday and got one delivered to me for £1.57 by 6pm though.

Re: High street collapse
Well the globalists have convinced the masses this is the new eutopia and every modern party and all of their shills are going along with it so they can't all be wrong can they. The good news is those being worked to death will soon be replaced by others who are willing to undercut them so they can gain sanctuary on the dole.
Studies have shown that the most likely group to suffer unemployment due to immigration are migrant workers themselves. God only knows where this leaves the native population in all of this. Sounds like on the scrapheap to me.
If it wasn't for the likes of Amazon and the huge amounts of tax they pay we would not be able to sustain this over the long term.

Till all the people who work in shops are unemployed so they haven't got any money to spend in pubs so the people who run pubs haven't got any money and eventually no one will have any money to order foreign goods from the internet anymore.

Re: High street collapse
Everyone seems to work in call centres telling me Ive had a car accident, judging by the amount of phone calls I get about this, anyway.

More difficult to get a dentist appointment than a bottle opener.
