    Oh dear it's so sad to see how much Crewe has fallen into disrepair & depravity. I see it not just in Crewe but all over the country but Crewe is definitely in the worst towns category but i put the blame on the councils of certain areas Cheshire east council is totally to blame they have destroyed the town by knocking units down without any back up plans relying on government promises. Parts of Crewes history have been destroyed especially the clock tower that I thought would always be part of our history. I have just walked through town and it hurts every time. I am part of an older generation being 53 I have seen so much taken away & I know people of my age also see this. What happened to Crewe carnival it was a massive cash generator for the town there was always thousands upon thousands of people at the event the council blamed the pollution being caused by the carnival floats in the long possession🤔 I remember waiting for the big event every year it was a proud time to be alive but like everything it's been taken away. So in my final thoughts. What's left well there is absolutely nothing hardly any shops a massive pile of earth in the centre a bus station that is an absolute joke next to a bigger horrible multi story monstrosity that is having so many issues it might never open & about 90% shops boarded up with homeless people everywhere. I have so much hate towards the council blaming lack of money and inflation it's the lack of braincells that's the issue how about bringing rents down or even freezing rents for 6 months on commercial premises instead of high rents nobody can afford & how about making the citizens of this town proud of there heritage how about a massive day every year to bring in thousands of people like a carnival with a massive funfair and market on that waste ground in the town that will embrace the whole town let us be proud once again there is so much of Crewe that's been destroyed & it's sad to see the woke council should all be fired bunch of clowns who haven't got a clue unless we start standing up to these idiots we are all complicit to this destruction 👌😡
