Into my heart, an air that kills. From yon far county blows. What are those blue remembered hills? What towns, what spires are those? That is the land of lost content, I see it shining plain. The happy highways where I went. Can never come again. My hometown, the town I still love. In 1963 the year I was born. I now live in Cornwall, far away from a town that is not even a shadow of it's once thriving self.
All mid-sized UK towns and cities are the same, all rotten from industrial death, incompetent public financial management and mass immigration. Northampton isn't the worst either...
Yes I was 14 and living in Northampton then. Why is the town centre now dead when the population has doubled? We should find the answer so that it’s not repeated somewhere else.
council and other related authority: we call it moving with the times, progression and well-being general public: we call it destroying a once fuctional town with rural sights and some outstanding buildings, public transport that worked and didnt bail out at 10 bays (north gate bus station) and not 1 but 3 train stations (st johns street and bridge street), high street shops that were practicle and of course a thriving market.
Compare those streets to today.. most front gardens gone, paved over for car parking, and the streets themselves, cars nose to tail, blocking footpaths.. Very few had cars back then. Now it’s at least 2 per household. These were the last few years..before ‘multiculturalism’ & ‘entitlement’ took over.. not for the better, sadly.

I was seven years old in 1963 and remember the town just like that.
back when we had a market, its a dump nowadays
The markets back and it looks great. Come check it out Mate
Not without it's problems then I'm sure, but in comparison it looks like it was thriving, especially the town centre.
You can walk in the town centre and not hear any English spoken at all.
