The Metro today reports that 1 in 9 shops in the UK are empty ... it seems that your claim that "others will fill the gap" is simply not correct, otherwise "others" would have filled the record number of empty shops already?

But can they be bothered?
The vast majority dont care whether they pay more tax - as long as they provide jobs, and nice coffee, surely?
... and when you say "others will fill the gap" .... are you sure?
Huge numbers of empty shops across Britain says not !!

Make it stop. It's not as if there's any real content underneath the secondary school pretentiousness. It's just tiresome.
