A couple of headlines from today's Blackpool Evening Gazette ... Woman left with ‘significant injuries’ after being attacked by group of thugs on Egerton Road in Blackpool. Her mobile phone was stolen during the attack... Man approached by gang armed with knife near Coral Island arcade in Blackpool
My young children got quite scared when we visited years ago. It only seems to be catered for there, if your a raging alcoholic with all the bars and clubs.
Brexit meant that northern towns. cities, like Blackpool were going to be economically better off and with the tories promising to level up too, it was going to be a win win scenario. In reality, those that voted for Brexit and the Tories were shafted good and proper. It was never going to happen and even Rishi was caught on camera saying that he had taken money away from deprived areas and given it back to those previliged areas in the UK.
Really interesting perspective from those native to Blackpool. Sad to see so little investment in the 'back yards' of such a hallmark of our nation. I hope it picks up for everyone, truly (although I can't see Starmer et al doing much...), I hope Blackpool receives the help it needs to get back to prosperity. Sending best wishes from Scotland 💙🤍💙
Well, the nicely restored Blackpool Tower, the whole seafront including the beach and the coastal protection, including the coastal road = was paid with EU subsidies...still 75ish % of Blackpool voted for Brexit...as the major of Blackpool stated "without the EU subsidies ALL of this would have been crumbled by now". Greetings from the EU27 🖐
From the mouths of locals. They know the problems but take time to work out the solutions. Life goes on, bad things don't always have to happen. It's all up to you / us to help. Not just Blackpool but everywhere we are seeing this.
Blackpool decided, some decades ago, to cash in on the pink pound and be the Brighton of the North. Problem was, what few families that where still coming to the resort, stopped and it's been in a death sprial ever since. The Talbot road gateway, leading from the station to the prom, is getting ever more run down and all you need to do is go a couple of streets back from the prom to see what a mess the town's in. It's depressing to think what it was like in the 80's and 90's compared to the state it's in now.
That’s nonsense, how about all the stag and hen parties ruining it for families? The place is a tired mess at the moment and blaming one section of society isn’t helping.
Expat 🏴 left England 30 years traveled the world ended up in Colombia 🇨🇴 Safe Police everywhere they dont mess around Send them to Blackpool cleaned up in one month Colombia 🇨🇴 No drugs all goes to the US and Europe more money the 🇬🇧 are you kidding Lovely Jubilee 😅
Ha ha. Greek Islands, Egypt, canaries, Caribbean, Cape Verde. Never a problem with 'loss'of Blackpool. There are enjoyable UK resorts which we would miss for UK breaks, but Blackpool, 'tick the box' by going up the tower once and that's it.
Perhaps interview the Drug Dealers? They're doing well in these communities. Then, the Crime Commissioners and Police who don't seem to be doing a great job tackling these criminals.
Asylum seekers are housed in the poorest areas, by central government, because it's cheaper than housing them in the home counties, where wealthy Tory politicians live. The next Labour government will be a glimmer of hope for the entire nation, including those who are desperate and feared, by people who are unable to use punctuation.

London is far worse…
Claremont is a dump
You mean your the Blackpool Tory didn't level up??? That's the Tories for you
Maybe he promised “level It” his promise is coming good..
Time to vote in a city council that will make changes and put the money where it counts. But it seems to always be the idiots that get voted in!
Council funding comes from central government using the Barnett formula .

Junk food addicts are well catered for..
Last time i went to BP for a weekend my new 250 quid coat got robbed from the bar stool lol
So many social problems have pulled many of the seaside towns down to their knees and we abandoned them for the Costa Brava!

Went for a day trip...stepped off the coach and regreted straight away hate the place
Try Rhyll. You'll start loving Blackpool.
As usual the boomer has no idea what's going on in society
And you do.

Nothing stays the same forever…

The damage form austerity measures will never end .
People are fleeing from the fighting in Blackpool.
Town centre, the rough area !!!😧😮😯😲
How is it at the outskirts then !?!
I have not seen Blackpool since the 70s.
Went to Canada for 35 yrs.
I returned to live in England in 2015.
Immigration ruined England.
'Most of em are crackheads'...i wonder why???
George Formby once sang: "With My Little Stick of Blackpool Rockin' up"

Lovely Jubilee 😅
Blackpool - it's all front!
Plenty of corporate and council corruption too. However, I do appreciate your pun.
How do they find these people?
PS the old Boy was Classic ...who lol😅
People love airports and foreign holidays…then moan Blackpool isn’t the same….use it or lose it..
20 million visitors last year.
@@stephenbrown8744 day trippers ? Or two weekers ?
Sunshine, warm blue seas, Greek Island or Blackpool. A no brainer.
@@brianwillson9567 Blackpool leave it to deteriorate and support your Greek sunspot, then moan about the state of British resorts..a no brainer..
Ha ha. Greek Islands, Egypt, canaries, Caribbean, Cape Verde. Never a problem with 'loss'of Blackpool. There are enjoyable UK resorts which we would miss for UK breaks, but Blackpool, 'tick the box' by going up the tower once and that's it.
What year round employment is there for young adults other than the entertainment industry ?
Whatever. I still love Blackpool.
But Boris said his Brexit was going to fix all this .... 🙄
The name doesn’t help to promote it as a tourist destination. Maybe for a Gothic convention.
I Was In This Video I’m Famous Yay I Have my own RUclips Channel 😊
Doe,s it stll have a train station?
She said it's very layed back. Under statement or what.
MBGA Make Blackpool Great Again.
THE TROGAN HORSE IS IN.
What's going to change
It’s been on the decline since the mid 1980s. It need billions of investments . Like many seaside towns.
DRUG S FROM ALL THE FORIGNER S.
Perhaps interview the Drug Dealers? They're doing well in these communities. Then, the Crime Commissioners and Police who don't seem to be doing a great job tackling these criminals.
there is not much they can do, as locals wont report it
silly people voting for labour i hope you get lots of migrants in your town😄
New Labour policy is to relocate new immigrants to Tory towns in rural areas.Karma.
flood gates will open

The numbers coming will be off the scale...

Get Dyssney to open..Dysany world uk.
