you hear people say that there are no decent jobs going and there are no decent shops in accrington - but when someone wants to build a shop here folk complain and dont want it ....doesnt make sense..
I *highly* doubt people will go and do all their shopping at Tesco then go and wander round the market. It will end up being the nail in the coffin, but if thats what people want, thats what people want.
