🚨 6 years. £7,000 a month. Still empty.
It’s now the sixth anniversary of Cargo closing its doors — and unbelievably, the University is still paying £7,000 every single month to lease a bar that’s been shut ever since.
That’s over £500,000 wasted on an empty space while staff are being laid off and courses cut. All while students are paying more than ever and getting less in return.
This isn’t just bad management — it’s a chilling insight into how disconnected leadership has become from reality.
Six years on… the doors are still shut. But the money keeps bleeding out. 💸
