February 09, 2022 https://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/latest-news/cancer-patient-leaves-hell-hole-30477246 Dear Mayor. My family & I moved to Blackpool in 1980. I consider it my “Adopted” hometown. Currently I am visiting from America where I now live. So why I am posting this on my blog? Well, I am very sad at how terribly rundown Blackpool has become. THE POVERTY. Rows and rows of empty shops. Rows & rows of sad tired Hotels. THE POVERTY. Swarms of children running loose in the town centre. Drinking. Smoking cigarettes & POT. Terrifying locals & visitors. People on the buses & trams. With their feet on the seats.. NOT ONE CONDUCTOR TELLS THEM NO!!! THE POVERTY The homeless. Many, of them frightening those that they approach. THE POVERTY Even tough the great work of redoing the tram system
