BBC content contradicts its title

BBC: Tunbridge Wells bucks downturn

The BBC have studios in this town. The film shows the shops that have closed down and sees an estate agent talking her book and then a lady that indicates people are losing their jobs like anywhere else. I moved here because its nice and my previous life inside the M25 led me to believe that you need to be mad to live in the UK; I now think you need to be a millionaire to live in the UK. About 40% of people are bankers or insurance brokers, 10% are seriously minted and most think their town would be just dandy in a nuclear holocaust. But homes are coming on at reduced prices and there are fire sales of conversions, land and Porsche Cayennes. Many shops and EAs have shut. My letting agent went bust a year ago and I lost my home when Ms Landlady got in £trouble. Recession proof? Righto.
