New Brighton became a joke when they gave us that hideous clown

sorry they did not give us it' it cost a fortune The Council paid bugger all for it!! Most of the iferstructure was funded by Morrisons, if anything the Council made or at least saved money on the development. Christ! what a negative lot you lot really are (with one or two exceptions) What we have is a cleaned up New Brighton which is already attracting visitors to the area to spend their money, people seem to rail against private enterprise and they don't want any public money to be spent yet they do expect a super resort with lovely facilities when they feel like a day out!! Well, I'm sorry to burst your bubble but you can't have your cake and eat it! Wetherspoons and the rest may not be to everyone's taste but by God they'll make the rest of the watering holes/eateries down there pull their socks up!! Onweards and upwards in my opinion, congratulations to all involved, keep up the great work!!

Well i'm sorry to "burst your bubble" (as you put it) but he was on about the damn clown NOT the joke of a supermarket. On the other hand it is a lot cleaner down there Carry on.....

It's lovely up here nowadays! If it was so bad then there wouldn't be all the people here today, a bit of sun and it's packed! Families playing on the dips, the supermarket is buzzing, The Light is amazing, the Derby Pool is always full and so is Brooklyns. I agree it will never be the resort it once was with the tower, ballroom, and outdoor swimming pool but it is trying to come back!
Give it a chance!

The 'Pierrot' was met with the same disdain being shown the later redevelopments yet it has become a well known landmark. By the way it was, in the main, paid for by European grants not by WBC. Just so as we have the record straight.....

I still don't get what it is you want!! There is bowling, a cinema, Laserquest, a (admittedly crappy) funfair, pitch and putt, tennis courts, family friendly restaurants, ice cream shops, rock shops and if you're on a budget the beach or the dips to just go and play on or perhaps fly a kite!! Really, honestly, if you can't find something to amuse kids in New Brighton on a sunny day you have very little imagination!!

The place that was supposed to be a fitness centre that nobody wanted to run will soon be a children's play area. In the meantime, how about a picnic on the beach & sandcastles?

Ste, that may well be so but for once we can't blame the council for that!!
