In 2014 there was a financial report that showed that over the previous 17 years arrivals from outside the EU had cost us 120 billion, ya know, all those doctors and engineers arriving and we paid 120 billion to support them. It's not just amazon, we can survive online shopping if our money wasn't robbed from us. google Immigration from outside Europe 'cost £120 billion' 2014. it's a fact

This reminds of the 80s song from the specials ghost town 😮

Very sad what has happened here. We took all we had for granted, now its gone!

Stoke on Trent use too be a thriving city. We made pottery we had a great mining industry the steel works and it's all gone. It's so very sad too see the decline in a short time .

The only reason those businesses don't thrive is cheap imports. There was a time when we valued the things we purchased, and didn't mind paying more, but now - it seems to be a race to the bottom with everything.

Such a shame.... i lived in SOT for 14yrs in my youth... it's sad to witness this

The pits where closed everything died😢

Sad thanks goverments, useless. Vote reform

Planning my next holiday...

Dont worry - the Westminster area looks lovely this time of the year ...... not that they would notice --- grim

Had many a good night clubbing in this town ,the demise is shocking.

Since COVID( and The Leopard pub fire) Burslem has never recovered...luckily The Bulls head, Johnnie's bar and Curry houses keep the place going somewhat.

Same thing happened in the USA it's asif its a planed reset 😢

I wonder, if Britain ever manages to rise up from all this neglect and decay of our towns, if the Heritage people would keep such derelict looking areas as a historic testament to how life was like in this era? In this crazy world that I find myself living in, I wouldn't be at all surprised!

@@michaelfozzard4122 Cheap imports, everything made in China. All of the companies who went to the wall did it to themselves - they all wanted to sell the cheapest, crappiest products.

This filmed on public holiday when shops shut ?

The leaders obviously love their country.

Disgraceful. How has it got to this state.?

All voted for, alas.

Soon to taken over by boat people.

Might be better if boat people had. Look how much Bognor improved when the polish took over?

@@markstill515 Polish are hard workers, and most came to better their circumstances. The new wave of imports is only about free welfare handouts and housing, nothing more.

travelling south wards on the canal, we had to stop in Kidsgrove.. some people friendly but there were a few people behaving unpredictably (abusive people and a streaker!!) chips were good though. Passing through the tunnel we came to a very rundown Stoke with buildings that were historically interesting to glide past but so battered and bruised😢. Again mixture of things going on, jogging with no shoes on towpath for a start, but CRT looked like they had organised some lovely events for the kids including canoeing.. wasn’t inviting enough to stop here. Such a shame

I know someone who moved from Stoke to Fleetwood...things are that bad....

Stoke is dead and beyond salvation. No matter how much money the government pours in. Newcastle Under Lyme, 2 miles away, closer to Keele University, very different city centre....

It's an end-of-the-world movie. Bring on the Zombies...

What a state

Another labour run council

State of the rubbish everywhere. This is awful to see.

you can count the towns teeth on one hand.

I wonder how many of you leaving a comment of hw terrible this is and then go and order something online.
