Where is the surprise in that? All is as expected. Pointless statement! Like your infantile posts. it will get worse before it gets better.

fwiw i think Debenhams will go altogether.
Actually went into administration on 9 April.
I can't see anyone being willing to take on any of the business for that future day when the high street re-opens. The (mostly) large and prominent stores will leave significant gaps.
