  • John Munday presents BBC North West, and the proposed plans for the Wigan Market site. 30 odd years later, some of the dialogue that was spoken at the time is utter garbage, mind you, do Councils ever do anything they say!

      Today it will be the reverse where all the clueless muppets with their stupid face nappies on will be welcoming it. Back then people had more backbone to say NO.

      ​@@uphollandlatic You clearly watch BBC News or read the newspapers, otherwise you would realise that masks don't stop the spread of a virus because any small holes in them that tiny bacteria will pass through them, not only that but masks are harmful to your health it even says this on the WHO website. Also, it is not a law to wear one no matter how they try and convince it is. And forcing people to have a vaccine otherwise they face losing their job is against human rights.

    It's weird to see the plans of it before it was built. Now they are planning to demolish the whole thing.

      It was built to come down. You need to understand that Freemasons are Occultists and do rituals. Even the original market hall had a huge masonic ritual around the town before opening. They made the figure of a skull as they walked around. They are Occultists. Their beliefs stem from Babylon/Egypt but ultimately they are just satanists.

    Don’t spend money keeping the market tidy and then say it needs tidying up. Spend £30m to Destroy the whole ambience of the market hall.

    I remember the old market hall as a place of wonder, from the joke shop to the live lobsters. Revolving doors! Wow. Perhaps the filter of childhood, but nowt like that from the mess thzt replaced it.

    Holy FK, it is no wonder the town was left to deteriorate - 30MGBP in 1984 is now, in 2025, calculated to be £123,229,951.16. George Orwell was on the ball with his "Road to Wigan Pier", with a slight twist in the title for the developers and councillors .. The road to Wigan Pier is paved with gold.
