We have seen a lot of that with ISPs particularly.

Homebase purchased by incompetent Assies?

On the subject of businesses set to fail, how may Turkish barbers can a
small area support and how many Vaping Parlours are required? There
are 4 of the latter within 10/15 minutes walk from my house - all
empty when I walk past them.


It is a 'sign of the times' that our high streets are full of shops /
businesses which come and go as their owners discover the area can't
support them. Eventually, many premises end up as charity shops-
apparently they can get some favourable deal.


I understand that Charity Shops don't pay Business Rates.


I went to one today nicely cool with a/c with the front double doors
open, so maybe they don't pay electricity either.
