Well, in five years, the way things are going, they're not going to meet much high street
00:07
stores open if it keeps going like this. So I think the commercial, they need to be supported
00:13
a lot more by the council. I think that's one of the supports.
00:18
Probably a lot worse. Some of the streets there, some of the high streets, not just
00:24
in Birmingham, around Birmingham, they're deteriorating. They're being replaced by very low sort of
00:35
quality kind of type of shops, you know what I mean? So, which then people won't come into
00:41
Birmingham and they'll, it will just be, become deliried. As far as I'm, you know, it's just
00:47
getting worse. A lot of empty buildings and empty shops, more people buying online, which
00:54
is sad really, isn't it?
