Seems sensible, try to close stores were there is a duplicate, eg FOPP in Manchester and close ones which are in Expensive shopping centres that attract young people who are most likely to download through the likes of Netflix eg Trafford Centre, Westfield London, Thurrock - Lakeside and Glasgow Braehead. and Bristol Cribbs Causeway As Wigan now has HMV as does Liverpool and Preston maybe Southport's on the closure list as it sits between others that are a mere bus ride away, plus the cost of employing staff in Southport is possibly more as would rent due to the place being upmarket, same with many towns in the South.

It seems highly likely come sometime on Wednesday we will be having a major cabinet reshuffle.

There will definitely be a new chancellor of the exchequer and maybe a new secretary of state for transport.

Would be lucky, Him going for No Deal has angered some of his own MPs who are happy to bring him down

The tories have got themselves into a corner as with such a slim Majority they need to do a balancing act, I can see Boris going for No Deal and his own MPs will stop him via a no Confidence vote leading to an Xmas General Election. Interesting times ahead

This could end up in stalemate if we end up with a parliament hung again , something has to give at some point.

Seems highly likely that Wrightbus is going to be put into administration today , hopefully a buyer will come along for the company , otherwise it looks like the pool of vehicles manufacturers will get ever smaller.
