Why are they still allowed I wonder! - the Govt put paid to the NHS being allowed to use gagging orders c2014 ? Scandalous!

Well that's what happens when they copycat and try to push someone else off the high street. No sympathy !

After a reprieve last year, Birkenhead's House of Fraser is closing on September 27th unless Frankie babes can convince Mick Astley otherwise. Closing sale now on.

There's a real danger that the left will drag Britain back to the 1970s, with secure well-paid jobs, ample housing, properly-funded NHS and social care, free tuition, student grants, final salary pensions, affordable rail fares and fabulous films and music. David Osland 2025

House of frasers full of chavy scally sports gear now. Its part sports direct in stock not just owner.
It was always quiet. Birkenheads a scally dump . Im amazed its lasted this long.
I was eating a protein bar while drinking their coffee in the cafe upstairs years ago. Facist jobsworth cafe manager complained to me about eating other food. The nerve of it.
I wanted to tell her to f off. Petty.
Never went in again. Bye bye HOF another over priced internet destroyed business . Who cares.
As we say thats life.
