I can hear dominoes falling. Tamworth store closing too.

First of many this...old Bozza's Covid screwup will come home to roost over the next 6 mths

Does anyone actually shop in there?

Everything is overpriced.

A massive body blow to the flagship store at Grand Central.

I worry for Birmingham.

What replaces it?

Primark already has its own place within the Birmingham Town Centre.

It’s an utter shame about John Lewis & for the wider West Midlands too

"Never knowingly undersold" has always been their rallying cry. I (used to) get my foreign currency from John Lewis at Cheadle Royal. Beats Post Office and Fair FX etc every time.

The flagship Birmingham store has been losing money since it opened. It was an enormous white elephant designed to aid Andy Street's Mayoral ambitions. Hugely embarassing for him now.
