     Wilko going bust is a symptom of high street decline and Brexit and failed economic and social policies over decades. I feel sad and angry about this.

     Like someone else said the UK is a poor country with some very rich people. Wealth has shifted up since Thatcher. Increasingly car centred economy. Higher council tax and higher parking charges and less money from central government. Rising property and food and fuel prices. Decline papered over.
