00:00The shop in Midas has been very, very damaged by the turnover of the falling down for the past year and now it's been to be the second year.
00:13So it's two years since the fires has been in the hotel in Midas.
00:19Due to that, I would believe every business, small business or big business, they are probably 25 to 30% down, some of them more than that.
00:31I believe some of them have been closed to go somewhere else or to close down their shop because they couldn't survive with the closure of the road.
00:42Now we have some traffic light every two months or every three months because we are repriming the road, which I agree with that, but why they can't do those work during the winter time?
00:57And on top of it, it would be nice if they could deal with this hotel.
01:02We have no answers from the council or from Southdown or from...
01:09Everybody's got different version and everybody's saying we are waiting, we are waiting.
01:14But the shops, they don't want to wait anymore. We need the money now, not in one year, in two years, in three years.
01:22Because otherwise, small business, they're going to suffer, they will have to close down and there is nothing we can do about it.
01:30So, that's my frustration at the moment and I'm so upset about that.
01:35At least, if somebody could have the idea to cover the scaffoldings and do some nice pictures of good wood or car drain, but to stop to have this ugly building in the center of Midas.
