my grandad is talking on this about his grandchild having asthma, I watch this all the time to hear his voice and see him again, i miss him so much it hurts
Sadly - or not, depending on your point of view - ICI is no longer there to pick up the tab for destroying the health of its workers. Which it most assuredly did, in the most cynical way possible. They blackmailed their workforce: don't make too much fuss or we'll move away and bang go your jobs. Meanwhile, life expectancy was reduced and kids were born with asthma. The best thing that could happen to the people of Grangetown would be if they were moved out - forcibly if necessary, for their own good - relocated to a much better environment and that the whole area was flattened and turned into parkland. Not that anything would grow there, mind you.
why do these places exist? There are shops because people live there and shop in the shops - a few work in ICI which is a shit firm to work for by the sounds of it What else is there to do? Apart from move and join the human race and green Middlesbrough over and add it to the North York Moors National Park
