They can only let shops for what the open market is prepared to pay.<br /><br />You will actually find that most landlords are now keener than ever to let vacant units given empty rates liabilities, one of many ridiculous legacies of the previous government.<br /><br />In reality the scheme is suffering because of the economic downturn, not because of "city spivs" or greedy landlords.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5008739840732779226.post-48728353393670974502010-04-09T22:32:25.073+01:002010-04-09T22:32:25.073+01:00Angel Walk ought to be a prime site given the foot...Angel Walk ought to be a prime site given the footfall from people passing through between Sainsburys and the High Street.
