Is it me or is you-tubing getting worse? I mean anyone can wander around with a go-pro, saying "leave some comments/like" "down below". At least include a bit of history, information or why things are boarded up, what they used to be like. It's so bad I can't be bothered leave a comment/like.

Pretty busy in Hanley this morning as I walked through at about half ten, didn't go into the Potteries Centre but around and about that area was as busy as I've seen it for a while.

Weird that he's picked the very two areas which are actually the most likely to have something done to them.
The flats are being demolished.
The Etruscian site has massive plans included an Arena (20 years too late)
He's not wrong that the joke of councils what have done to the City though. Why on earth they didn't concentrate on Stoke as center I don't know. Central point to the city with D Road, close to University, Train station, and football ground. But you've got a pretty Bus station in Hanley that struggles to get a double decker to enter.
On top of that the utter waste of reported 45 million on the Smithfield ventures.

Heās breathing that heavily in the second one I thought he was going to have a heart attack. Heās basically walked around a building awaiting demolition and a site awaiting development, had a couple of digs about asylum seekers and single mums whilst constantly using the phrase āso this is Hanley guysā.

It all overlooks the fact the vast majority of Stoke on Trent people are decent. That's because the vast majority of people everywhere are decent.

But your point on slagging off Merseyside is different because youāre conversing with people who actually live in the area. These arenāt some kind of stereotypical slurs. We live here 24/7 and we know what itās like

More like leveling it completely, Iāve had reason to attend a works meeting in Stoke today and what a nightmare, everywhere friggin roadworks.
I honestly hate visiting the place, not a chance anyone can seriously invest in this place with such atrocious road networks.

www.stokesentinel.co.uk/news/stoke-on-trent-news/hanley-skyline-set-change-forever-8028621Reading the sentinel comments section is depressing as fuck. Maybe I am naive but I look at this sort of development and think "this is exactly the sort of thing SOT needs" but all the comments are the opposite. Maybe someone can fill me in as to why such negativity? TBF the sentinel comments section is an absolute cesspit but maybe they are onto something that I'm not seeing. Because I look at this development (and the goods yard) and think these are exactly the sort of projects that SOT needs to improve as a city and increase investment/opportunities and reverse the decline it's been on since de-industrialisation.
