Blackpool: Beggars, Booze & Bigotry

that's what's it like on the streets of black oh this is my life so I'm back in Blackpool 6 months after my last video about the seide resort where I highlighted the homelessness and deprivation within the town but I'm back to try and do a bit more of a positive video today after just yesterday labor leader Kama visited here and said Blackpool needs real change claiming Investments was needed in areas such as here Water Road in South Shore this comes after many people here have given up on politics after Scott Bon the conservative MP for blackw South was called Last year by undercover reporters saying he would Lobby ministers on behalf of the gambling industry and Lee a confidential policy documents for up to £4,000 a month so this is the perfect place to start and show the pride and ambition of people in Black have for their place and even give a little back myself so this Cafe is the Pinnacle of society and thrives on the man of arrive as a customer but leave as a friend and has nothing but positive feedback about the inclusivity it thrives on also just like Liverpool's paper cup project this place offers a payer forward scheme where you can pay forward for hot drinks or food to support people facing poverty families on low incomes or just High budgets Which is far too common here in blackpill to put on there um two breakfast with yeah forward we doing large or small
