    “Pedestrianise parts of north street and add more crossings, provide plenty of cheap parking, lower the business rates. That's how you get high streets thriving.”

    “The choice of photograph, showing a supermarket shopping basket, is rather inappropriate.”

    “This Mary Portas, "Champion of the High Street" couldn't possibly be in any way related to the Mary Portas who, in 2011, rather than open her own shop on the High Street she champions, opened one as a concession in a massive department store?”
