I was saying Debenhams was about to go when Gordon Brown was still PM. Lots of people saying the additional jobs taxes are putting people out of jobs, talk to anyone in hospitality when you're on your hols.
It's transparent nonsense from someone who clearly has a business that didn't or couldn't move with the times. It's quite obviously not the result of nine months of Labour government - but gets the owner a nice write-up in the Telegraph and the Mail.
Nonsense - all department stores - and many other retailers - are under pressure thanks to Amazon and the failure to rein in their still-growing monopoly
