Afflecks Palace under threat?


According to this article, the beating heart of the Northern Quarter, and magnet for teen goths from all over the North West is under threat of closure.

Apparently, the landlords have yet to confirm whether they will renew the lease when the contract runs out on June 14th.

Question is: how much gentrification can the NQ take and still retain its vibe?

We might as well all emigrate to Ashton. We could all live with Sarah and Matt.
