To be entirely fair, the company behind the plan, Criterion Capital, has already fricking ruined it by turning it into a pod hotel with 728 windowless rooms.
!britbongs another big L on the books, although in my opinion London should be nuked from orbit anyway

never heard of the place
Also anything in that area that isn't some shitty tourist shop selling "american candy" is an improvement

It once contained the London Pavilion Theatre. I think the reason most people haven't heard of it is because it's been gutted, stripped, sold off and traded between various investment banks since the 1950s. It's more a relic of the Victorian era.

I still don't understand how these "computer shops" stay in business. I'm yet to meet anyone who would trust them to fix a device. Unless it's a money laundering front there just isn't the customer flow needed for profit.

They're all money laundering; drug dealers wash their cash in those.

Thereβs definitely a market for them depending on the area, a lot of these computer shops provide MSP services to small businesses. On top of that if you donβt want to get anally r*ped when you replace a screen, weβll order the parts at the customers expense and do the labor way cheaper than a manufacturer would.
(I donβt work at a shop full time but I sometimes jump over to my buddyβs to help him out under the table)

Yep. Foreign investors own something like 40% of all commercial property in the UK. The country is bleeding like a stuck pig
Also it's funny you mention infrastructure given the fact that some of the land stolen from Brits to build HS2 has now been sold off to foreign developers and not actually used to build railways.

It makes me seethe to think about it. The UK needs a nationalisation programme and investment property regulations but Labour is too kitty to do the needful

We should've listened. He's even doing the 'I told you so' face.

The American candy stores are mostly fronts for money laundering.
