RE: Marks & Spencer quitting Accrington is ‘betraying customers’ (LT, January 27) They’re not going stay somewhere where they’re not making money. It’s obvious.
Marks and Spencer isn’t profiting from staying open in an already and fast progressing run-down town.
Before you know it, Accrington will be a ghost town with nothing other than takeaways, mobile phone shops and pound shops. Blackburn offers a much better shopping experience, that’s why people go there shopping instead of Accrington.
