rather than banter i'd appreciate a considered answer to #718

Do you ever come to Brixton? Really? Where once were useful shops and daytime businesses are now bars and clubs, nailbars and sportswear outlets. Where once was a thriving market is now a pale shadow. Does it matter whether the new business are catering for the higher disposable income of some young people or to the willingness of the less well off to spend what little disposable money they have on partying and preening? They're catering for young people. That's the outward, the most visible sign. But you only have to look at who is using the market during the day to realise who is not visible in the evening.
