I think you are correct. However, the fact that the City still looks a state shows how far we have fallen in the last 30 years - like lots and lots of towns and cities in the UK. There are great things happening but it will take decades of sustained development to get Sunderland to where it should be.More development going on in sunderland at the moment than at any time in our lifetimes.
Exciting times indeed
Surprised you couldn't get all you need in Sunderland mind if H&M is seen as a good point in Sheffield mind.Nice selection of restaurants and a really good H&M
We are predisposed to expecting the worst.The streets could be paved with gold and they'd still find something to moan about on here.
Facts and that.More development going on in sunderland at the moment than at any time in our lifetimes.
Exciting times indeed
I used to think it was a shithole but having spent a weekend in Slough and seeing how that has 'developed' in the 15 years since I moved back up here made me realise that it's not that bad. Seen a couple of comments about the train station too and again it's not the shit hole that people make out. I rarely go shopping anyway but the bridges is no different to most shopping centres really
I did see Dave the rave for my first time ever on Friday though so I may be mentally scarred
similar problems, too close to Manchester & Trafford centre.
Would blame the council for wasting moneyThe streets could be paved with gold and they'd still find something to moan about on here.
Yeah, I may disagree with some of the aesthetic designs of some buildings but it's what this city needs.More development going on in sunderland at the moment than at any time in our lifetimes.
Exciting times indeed
Suddick and Marley PottsYeah, I may disagree with some of the aesthetic designs of some buildings but it's what this city needs.
Mind on saying this, I would like to see more regeneration going into poor council estates and rundown areas than just plonking fancy buildings here and there.
Bet you love last night at the promsWe are predisposed to expecting the worst.
The government were proposing £30million per year for a mayoral constituency covering 7 metropolitan boroughs while cutting more than £30million per year from central government funding for EACH of those metropolitan boroughs. The deal is an insult.
What else did the deal bring...devolved decision making over things like transport. Well we have had that for some time now...maybe even more powers but we should benefit from that whether we are in or out of any deal.
By saying 'no' we have actually said that we are not devolving decision making powers from Sunderland to Newcastle. That was always the aim for Newcastle...the aspiration...to rule the north east.
No thanks
Doesn't everyone?Bet you love last night at the proms
