I have no idea Graham, I'm at a loss to what I wrote exactly 19 hours ago, kobblers said: You need to qualify that statement or remove it as it is dangerously close to libel. Rick. It seems I need do nothing now! But if some of their units I've viewed locally are anything to be compared by, that seem to be managed by one or more of the young Millennial Generation, Who are sat practically motionless, other than mobile phone in hand and wasting their paid employment time on surfing the web, sending texts, watching YouTube and participating on social media etc, Then I may have falsely based my assumption about the loss making on that.

Graham's post above could have be considered 'dangerously close to libel' had it been written differently and without the question mark.

Danny King Posted November 9, 2018 Report Share Posted November 9, 2018 He is also going to be on a government task force to save the high street... Am I wrong isn't he opening more and more portaloos on out of town developments? I heard the interview he is just good at saying what people want to hear. k4mrc 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Count Muppet Posted November 9, 2018 Report Share Posted November 9, 2018 John is advising the government on the high street, while timpson close more and more high street shops in favour of out of town sites. james has just been given some sort of position as the voice of small businesses all seems a bit messed up to me Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
