Good luck to those hard working people trying to earn a decent living in that area ,times are tough and the Birkenhead areas featured have suffered more than most and if it was not for the champions of the area and their small businesses the area would be a total wasteland ...

@@KaptainKastle Many reasons, you couldn't pinpoint a specific reason, if you listened to what I said in the vid, you may remember two points I made, one being the corrupt useless council and the other is there is no pride. That's the UK as a whole!!

Wirral Labour councillors are utter rubbish, parking charges to drive away shoppers (Brombrough & Cheshire Oaks have FREE Parking - you just create downtown dereliction. ASDA show the way forward, Councillors - create a 'shopping zone, parking £6 for four hours, £4 of the fee can be used against purchases inside the 'WSZ' - 'Wirral Shopping Zone', this encourages shoppers to return & browse around shops - the £4 fee can be used against council charges for shops, so the council has it's charges - alternative 2, reduce the number of councilors to six only for Wirral, remainder unpaid, alternative 3 - do NOT place superstore's that contain 'A High Street' of trade right next to the smaller traders - YOU have Killed trade by doing this, YOU are responsible for the Death of the Town centre, You are incapable of being in charge of a trading area. How many Councillors have business degrees ?, and have the experience of running a successful trading area - NONE. You councillors have just taken the USA 'easy on the eye' approach to future business that has decimated the Small towns of the USA (and many cities), and you think it can work here in the UK - FOOLS.

@@PUBLICSECTORJOBSWORTHS I don't hear you saying anything in this video. Just shop keepers being interviewed.
It can't be as bad as you're making out.
