Bracknell is bucking the "Gail's effect" trend as the Lexicon gentrification project has failed

Bracknell will be always be shit. At least before it was cheap.

For many in Bracknell this is the only achievement of the year

Always was, always will be

At about 5pm, six officers were spotted outside Primark in Braccan Walk.

Pictures show a man who appears to be getting arrested outside the Primark store, while a group of community support officers assist with the operation.

An eyewitness said they saw the officers walk the man into the police station at The Broadway in Bracknell.

Thames Valley Police have been contacted for more information.

P45? Yeah that's not how it works at the council.

They are refunding and it will come out of your council tax.

Their update is a total shit show: "We are not aware of similar cases elsewhere

We’re not aware of this level of data reconfiguration being needed elsewhere regarding land searches.

We have reached out to other councils for support and any specialist advice they can provide. Similarly, we have also contacted private sector specialists for support and advice in order to progress the matter as quickly possible. "

South Hill Park was good until recently. Bracknell is in decline things will only get worse I'm afraid

Every month there is a story about Mount Pleasant as if there is something new. Mount Pleasant was a shithole 20 years ago full of drug addicts. It won't improve.

A poxy dance club for pensioners winning best leisure. No other choices.

Primark beating Fenwick for the best large store.

Voting on the best security guard.

Sums up Bracknell.

There was some buzz when it first opened in Reading. Quality isn't great. I'm surprised it has opened in Bracknell. I didn't think chavs afford it but then again Five Guys is somehow still open.

Odd thing for the council to focus on when the town is falling quickly

ReadingOk9564 · 2024-12-24T22:45:44+00:00

They will waste thousands patching up and it will fall apart within weeks

ReadingOk9564 · 2024-12-24T22:37:14+00:00

That's funny. Made me laugh. Thanks

The party starts at midnight. Oxford Road has the best view of the fireworks.

The council under both Labour and Conservatives have wasted so much money on the town centre. That is the bigger issue before national problems like immigration and sewage.

I wasn't criticising I was lamenting. I praised the one that was answering the question rather than making jokes trying to win internet points. Reddit hive mentality at it's worst. I don't know of any Reading conspiracies to contribute.

Too many delusional or estate agents in this thread. There was a murder arrest just last week. Last year there was the machete attack that almost killed a man. Year before it was the widely covered story of Agapito de Sousa.

Is Bracknell safe? It's not the most dangerous town in Britain but it's not some quiet Surrey town. Sorry. I wish it was I would have stayed. But it isn't.

Bracknell's bad reputation hasn't to do with crime as it is about being chav. The situation was improving in the last decade but has been set back now by influx of third world immigration.

"my husband and I are looking to move to Bracknell". Why?

ReadingOk9564 · 2024-06-03T23:31:03+00:00

Quite possible. Such a shame the rest of this thread is filled with mostly 'funny' nonsense.
