Don't think us Next/River Island/Oasis/Warehouse/Jane Norman buyers are in the minority at all. Now acquiring a large immigrant population, and they love these high street stores. Once they are there .. people will buy. Unfortunately, the Council members are not sales people, and do not know how to put forward a decent proposal.
