Back it up or shut up and give the rumour mill a rest.

I strongly suggest that if it had have been then a decent job would have been done.

its been updated on the bbc, its now saying

Quote


A fire service spokesman said the blaze started in a ground-floor storeroom and damaged three other rooms and a club on the second floor.

No-one was in the two-storey building at the time.


Sounds like it was in the front of the building.

Of course it is. It's a tip that hasn't been updated in years, the best thing would of been for it to burn down so it could be built back to a half decent standard, now it will probably just have another lick of paint and be just as bad as ever.

Of course it is?

Do older buildings not catch fire?

On the contrary I'd say they were more liable to problems leading to a blaze.

Stop with the defamatory remarks or back them up.

The guy who's family business has just nearly burnt down doesn't deserve anonymous Internet muppets passing on rubbish.

I don't need to back them up it's my opinion of the place. As I said in my first comment it's bad news, I wouldn't wish this on anyone, but the fact is is that's it's dated and needs alot of investment to bring it up to the standard of what new Brighton will want to be in the future.

I don't disagree in general with your opinion of the place just that they attempted to burn it down themselves...

Wasn't me who said that, I also don't believe that either.
I do actually spend time there because my daughter likes the outdoor rides, but think he may have some hard times ahead if more new attractions open down there, but hey I may be wrong it would be a shame really

If it was his dad that still owned it I would of agreed, as he did that years ago to the bingo hall he had by the Chelsea.. But David is not like that. He even knows how to look ater his workers to a ponit, unlike his dad....

It would be really sad if the Palace ever went, it is the one last remaining buildings on the front with character. It is the signature building of the front. Money should be put into the restoration.
