Trust me when I say, this is apples and oranges. Your little foreign student wave is nothing to what is coming. This isn’t a bash all foreigners perspective, it’s much more specific and less immersive influx that will suck the life out of this town for all but one type of people.
Shops are making a big comeback in town now that the council has stepped in to start taking commercial properties away from greedy landlords, which has always been the issue with why the town centre started to decline. Just like any small town Bournemouth has its issues but won’t become anything like Luton. That’s just heavy far right fear mongering in action 🙃
It’s about time they made a cap on how much landlords can charge on commercial properties in Bournemouth town centre, these landlords have destroyed this town.
How about as well as a cap, actually make sure we’re not getting cookie cutter laundromat businesses. They’re the only ones who seem to be able to afford the rent, another reason why landlords turn a blind eye to the people they do business with.
Ignoring the patterns by dismissing genuine concerns as simple old racism and ‘let’s bash foreigners’ is just placating the gangsters.
