City Deal. Swansea Bay Region. 18:53 - Mar 7 with 4022 views | Private_Partz | BBC Cardiff preparing us for some bad news it seems. Despite initial optimism it appears it might be placed on the back burner again. It would have been easy to miss. It was way down the pecking order. They were far more interested in dissing Plaid for an alleged bullying AM. | |

Last one centred around steel crisis, which had nothing to do with WAG, will we be back to remember Thatcher on the next one? We deserve everything we get. | |

I've been on here on numerous times saying that a future Swansea has been for the last two decades nothing but a relentless stream of architect's drawings and artist impressions that find themselves into the SWEP. Looks like OUR imaginary City Deal is about to be placed in the folder labelled 'complete and utter bulls#it' along with other political motivated stunts i.e. all seater concert arena, new shopping centre complex to replace quadrant etc. My guess is they'll resurrect the 'possibility of' with miraculous pre-election run-in timing for it to then go back in the folder and be completely forgotten about once the next election (or two) has gone. | |

Thanks, I think the SWEP should also start printing pictures of architects drawings and artist's impressions of fairytale castles floating on clouds cos they'd be just as likely to happen. | |

As I said, we deserve everything we get politicians only care about places that will vote differently. I'm bored of saying it, but it's true. | |

Haha. I can't help feeling we are the 'Millwall of Wales'. Hated by WAG and statrved of investment. Hated by the rest of Wales as they wrongly think we also benefit from the Cardiff gravy train at the expense of the rest of them. | |

Seeing those artists drawings and sexy fly by videos of the bay was laughable. you just knew it was not going to happen. | |

Do you mean the half arsed lagoon that will serve as an experiment as it is not guaranteed it will be a success? Of course if it is a success, we'll be stuck with version one of this type of project, which will be far smaller and have far more flaws than the successive lagoons that are planned to be built in other cities (such as Cardiff) who are apparently not worth risking such a project on. | |

City Deal. Swansea Bay Region. on 21:12 - Mar 7 with 2181 views | Private_Partz | Yeah that's the one. The first one is always the tourist attraction. Like the first ever passenger railway. I wonder who had that? Or even the first ever prestressed concrete building? | |

Ha. Shortly before my latest ban, somebody genuinely suggested it would be a tourist attraction and people would travel from far and wide to visit it. Some are so furious that Swansea usually gets nothing that they are willing to accept absolutely anything. | |

City Deal. Swansea Bay Region. on 21:23 - Mar 7 with 2147 views | Private_Partz | Yep I think it would be a tourist attraction. If it is a success it will be a forerunner for more. The model T Ford of lagoons. If it is isn't it will be unique. Win win either way. Also load of jobs and something for the uni to use in their maritime pursuits. Also leisure facilities. Would love to see that red dragon appearing as the tide goes out :-) Fear not. I will have none of it and you will have your way. An unused stretch of beach in front of a sewage works will remain undisturbed for the odd student to swig a can of special Vat.... | |

As for job creation there will be a fair few jobs created...unfortunately, most of these will be given to Chinese workers to come over here. | |

And don't forget if they should ever need to recreate any of those typical apocalyptic ravaged city sets for a 1970's zombie period drama? Why not location-film in area's in and around Swansea City centre?.....Unchanged since the mid sixties to early seventies , save an absolute fortune in set design and CGI costs! | |
