So if there is such a great passion to make Accrington a vibrant town, with shops that will bring in the tourist(even if they are only shopping tourists), why isn't it happening.

Surely if I, (as a lowly retired person) can see this, there must be others far better educated than me,(and in positions of influence) who can see this and work out some way of making it happen here....rather than this gimmicky flim flam which does nothing concrete or lasting to improve, invigorate or promote the town.
