What is missing from our high streets? -

High streets in city centres are full of novelty shops, convenience stores, restaurants, bars, takeaways etc.What type of shop do we really need/want to see on the street?

Ironmongers!! Small Greengrocers and fruitiers. Independent Butchers Bakers and Chemists. Toolshops, Bicycle shops, Hatters, proper clothes shops......... all the kinds of shops which have disappeared over the last 25+ years.

Coffee shops with legal marijuana and brothels full of prostitutes.

I wish there were more proper good old haberdashery/craft shops around these days, it s so hard to find a good one any more.

Savvy smal shopkeepers who fight for trade rather than moaning about the tesco up the road.

dee aint really anything that we dont already have
