It's still closed, there's a surprise, not, but Gulzar's fake Lord buddy, who appears to be his PR guru, has stated on twitter that Hastings Pier is closed because some staff had resigned (elsewhere says they all walked out because they hadn't been paid their wages! Though they appear to have been paid it after the due date, as I've said before). More importantly, because of "necessary repair work" (and we all know how any repair work missed has arisen, if this is true, don't we?!? Because the 2 person maintenance team came into conflict with Gulzar/his company and were given the boot/suffered from constructive dismissal/whatever, they don't work there anymore!
The bottom line? Hastings Pier is so obviously being mismanaged, and the Christmas Opening Times we were waiting for? A figment... Don't expect the Pier to reopen anytime soon, the owners have no concrete plan for its future, and likely have no money to actually improve the Pier, consequently, very happy to not have to pay wages to staff. Maybe there should be a sweepstake on when it will be put up for sale, just suggesting... What a sad mess for this wonderful award-winning structure!
So, who did benefit from a stuffed brown envelope? 😯
And the weather is now perfect to promenade along the Pier!
