Burton Upon Trent as many other towns is losing its roots mainly because Coors has taken over the world reknown brewer Bass. The same as HP being taken from Birmingham to go to Europe. When will it stop? I started to see it with pub companies planting the same pubs in every town in the UK and the same with department stores. Every town starting to look the same. England and everytown within it has its one underlying attraction - tradition. This is soon disapearing and this really gave me a blow to the ribs when they have even taken our British beer Bass away from us. We need to encourage UK businesses, firstly from leading by example by not selling our national iconic businesses to other countries. For more information on Burton Upon Trent visit

There are so many business finders on a national scale, offering lots of information about businesses but actually no information that can really be used effectively. Why because none of them are local, lots of them are out of date have no real idea about the local area and the businesses in them. We are losing the local feel of towns and cities in this country, one reason is because of the Internet. All of the big companies can get to the top of the search rankings and make more money on a national scale but where does this leave the local businesses? Local businesses need to be advertised as well and the best way for them to do this is to collaborate together on to one site and get noticed on their collaborated page on the net. This is what I am doing in Burton Upon Trent because if you type Burton Upon Trent in the search engine no local business is ranked there. If you have any questions and want to join me bringing locality to Internet advertising
