    Hastings? One of my favourite towns in the UK. Stayed many times at the Jenny Lind, dined at great restaurants and walked around the town, up the lift to West and East cliff, and along the promenade many times, and loved every minute! One of the most photogenic towns in England!

      Not at all surprising when you consider that the staple industry for over a century was cotton. The collapse of the textile industry was followed by that of the engineering industries that originally developed alongside it. There was a dense and labour-intensive railway network -almost all now gone, there was coal-mining -all gone. Essentially a late-Victorian economy progressively collapsed after the artificial stimulus of WW2 production ended, and the situation has been aggravated by an influx of labour from the Indian subcontinent whose numerous progeny now struggle to find worthwhile employment.

    Wow, 6 out of the 10 in Lancashire. The town of my birth, Blackburn, has been going downhill since the 70's when industry started to disappear. I suppose the same applies to all the other places, it is a very sad reflection on Government. We took our daughters to Blackpool in 2007. We had a great time on the Pleasure Beach, seeing shows etc. But the B&B we stayed in told us if we had tried to book a weekend visit they wouldn't have taken our booking with children (aged 12 & 14) as Blackpool is overrun with Hen and Stag parties who behave in an appalling way. Also there were a lot of very aggressive Beggars on the streets who would threaten you if you tried to walk past them without giving them money. No doubt there are many other places in the UK which are just as deprived.

    As a lifelong resident of Oldham this is the result of successive labour councils with no innovation or forward thinking to drive or encourage investment in a higher growth local economy.

      With all due respect, all councils in the UK have been stripped to the bone by gross underfunding by the government who has been in power for 40 of the last 50 years, and that is the Tories. Councils get money from government. You can have a Labour council and a Tory government. If you want your Labour council to have the funds available to make improvements, don't vote for the Tories.

      Many people somehow are surprised with blackpool ,but these people aren't thinking rite if they think that the rich who own all ,the facilities in the town will share the riches with the people ,think again it's got most minimum wage jobs per population in the country ,and there's hardly any industry here it's a dead end town sad to say ,and as usual government don't give a shit even recently they had a conference here ,most stay at imperial hotel obviously most will try and get a seaview ,but those put in the back rooms overlook Dickson road and north shore ,just one of many places with buildings decaying boarded up ,and just plain grimness all round but as we know Tories have no hearts ,they have seen this over the years blackpool has given so much to the country ,over couple of hundred years back when it was the only place to go for fun ,but then left to rot by the country .

    Too many people, not enough lucrative employment. Drug deaths is just one way to balance overpopulation while providing "Do-Gooders" with employment.
    The result is seen throughout history (and who are we to assume that we can change that?)
    Rolmanskop, Namibia; Ciudad Peridida, Colombia; Angkor War, Cambodia; Persepolis, Iran; Machu Picchu, Peru.
    Just some of the whole Cities that ceased to exist.
    So why should not these mere Towns become redundant?

      Don't be silly this man's clearly knowledgeable most areas around are rough ,it's just believe it or not blackpool is rougher once you come off the prom , especially round central drive were groups of teenagers roam around ,in big numbers at times just attacking tourists and sometimes each other ,and like this fella said we have by far per head population biggest amounts of class a drug taking ,a lot of people are roaming round off there heads ,that's why every so often people get beat to death in our streets .

    Dare anyone with an idea start a business in any of these towns and the communists in power will descend on you like a ton of bricks,I know I tried. I and many of my team upped and left and had to work in London whilst still working on our software company at the time. And the area we left did they go from strength to strength ,not quite but the commies in charge have wonderful lives and magnificent pensions.
    China ought to take note of how not to run towns dependent on one business.

      Do you mean an IMMIGRANT population? If so, you could not be more wrong. Oldham, Blackburn, Darwen, Burnley and Rochdale all have MASSIVE immigrant populations. One reason is cheap housing. You can buy houses in Burnley for £50 000 or less!
