Developers can go get fucked. They never build in places that need it, they only ever build awful things with no aesthetic, architectural or, to be frank, livable value, and they are constantly tearing down community buildings in the name of a quick profit. The Preston Market is great for the community, and indeed far better for it than Colesworth ever was.

Fuck the developers, and frankly fuck capitalism and its endless shitfuckery.
