I also like F1, but to believe thousands could benefit from Lewis taking the knee to have greater impact than the regeneration of an entire region is ludicrous.
For the record , I do not reside in the North West,, but could almost feel the lifting of spirits when permission was granted the other day.

BMD is not just about a new football stadia. This is significant to the re-emergence of a proud, but often overlooked part of the UK. Here is the potential to restructure and re-energise and extend an already unique skyline. Buildings, shops, taverns, apartments etc to what is in reality a derelict area. The creation of jobs in itself will bring a greater form of wealth, and, therefore, spending ability to thousands.
