      I agree with that. I’m just not sure that going round filming down alleys and the very depleted town centre whilst making unkind comments really makes that point. There are lots of funding projects being lined up for the town which would have been interesting to hear your take on. But I realise this is just my opinion and it’s evidently a minority one in this comment section!
