BINNS, Marks and Spencer’s, BHS, Woolworths etc. closures are due to the public not having wages to pay the high prices they charge.

I’m sick of Brexit being blamed for something that’s been happening since I remember. In the 1980s/1990s Walter Wilsons, Doggarts etc. closed.

People don’t have the money due to high costs of rent, mortgage, gas, electric, school uniforms, school trips that many children cannot go on etc.

I feel like we are going back to the 1800s/early 1900s with class distinction between rich and poor. Really poor.

No matter how long you work and the more you make, the more the rich (Government taxes) take from you.

Binns closure is due to the greedy bosses wanting more money for themselves nothing else.

Greed is ruining the country.
