Crawley may bid for city status

Sussex Nomad said:

As I have already explained I agree the town centre is a shabby grey blot on the landscape, but the rest isn't. It also has the best road infrastructure of any of our other towns/cities in Sussex. There have been murmurs of a town centre facelift, but we'll see. Sadly the centre is the 'face' of Crawley. Like an ugly bird/bloke with a great body!

(Meanwhile, speaking of uninspiring concrete housing estates, Milton Keynes celebrates the 50th anniversary of its founding today, and is trending on Twitter as a result (#MK50). To commemorate the occasion, they're going to find a much-loved old statue from another town and steal it)

And so is Eastbourne. Perhaps we should have a city here if Crawley can be one?
