This is a crime!
With shops like Topshop and H&M closing, the IW now has few chain clothes shops to rely on.
It is unacceptable to deny us of our rights to shopping and entertainment!
As a young person, I don't want to live in a place where something as simple as clothes is inaccessible and it's not fair that we are being treated in this way.

Another point is that we don't have things like shopping malls and shopping centres, so there are few places for teens and young people to hang out.
With this in mind, our bored younger generation will turn to stealing and destruction. Think of the crime rates going up.
Overall, I wish for chain clothes businesses to expand to the isle, as some people can't afford to pay and shop on the mainland.
This is a disgrace!
