They’ve no interest in doing that as they need to use them for political capital, and also hope that imposing as much misery on them as possible will act as a deterrent (when there’s ample evidence to show it doesn’t). There’s the added bonus of providing juicy contracts to companies they’ve got vested interests in. So it’s typical modern day Tory policy really; inefficient, ineffectual and profiteering off the misery of others. I was hoping the change in the guard may lead to improvements, but given the first two things the ironically-named Cleverly said in his interview were “immigration” and “stop the boats”, it looks unlikely that anything will change. |  |

I've stayed in the Ipswich Novotel several times, and never had an issue. Rooms are decent size and comfortable, aircon works, bar's open late. Not expensive, booking in advance either. Having it back will reduce demand at other hotels, and quite likely ease prices all round. |  | |  |

It done the job perfectly when I had covid and got temporarily booted out of the house to stop the spread. Imagine it’ll need a refurb now though. |  | |  |

Not entirely sure why this casual racism that you pretty frequently post is allowed. SB |  | |  |

Shut up. After hundreds of people have been living in a hotel for months, it’s pretty clear a refurb is going to be needed and I’m pretty sure has also been documented. |  | |  |

Because it was a popular hotel in the heart of a dying town centre. Multiple people were made redundant and I would assume the local businesses along St Nicholas Street have had a drop in business. I know many people who stay there frequently for work and also for football. Family members got married there too, so is it really racist to want a hotel to return to its normal function? |  | |  |

The lack of a mention of Toys R Us and Wilko returning to its normal function seems kinda dubious if you ask me - I know he's just a giraffe, but Jeffrey being homeless is clear evidence that it's not a lifestyle choice. [Post edited 14 Nov 2023 15:17]

And don't forget, there were millions of Jeffrey's all under one roof, where are they now? |  | |  |

Makes you stop and think Blues. One day you're riding high and the next you are nothing more than a footnote on a "Other Daily Mail News Online" article. People just aren't asking the right questions any more, fella. |  |

Think part of the reason Novotel did it was to enable funds for a refurb. Was in the press release at the time they’re going to do it and add more rooms. Will need it. |  |

Toys R Us closing was a sad state of affairs :(( An Ipswich landmark. The sign is still in place, but left in the dark :( |  |
