Well we have the death predictions, why not a Company death predictions?

Marks & Spencers always seem to have problems. I could perhaps see a recruitment agency going bust this year

Nearly every small newsagent when this stupid law comes in, when they can no longer display cigarettes in view but have to keep them locked away.
Other travel agents/airlines without a doubt, the strength of the Euro will definitely kill off a few in the next 6 months.

I think I spend enough in Boots to keep them afloat!!!!!!!!!

On a serious note, I can see someone like Waterstones going bust.

I think M&S will be fine.

Debenhams is a goer, and in agreement with The Gazzatron, i think a few recruitment firms will be bought out or go under in the not too distant future.

It's a big web of sin and they're all fucked. That's if we have a mousey holocaust anyway. Look and Read!

Some part (but not all, that was the point of the separation) of DSG
WHSmiths (and aren't the Post Office in Swindon going to look like cunts when that happens, having closed down their main office with a cheery "Oh, its OK, you plebs can queue at some micro-kiosk in Smiths instead")
Argos - precisely what is the point of Argos these days? If you want fast, cheap etc you go online, otherwise you go to the damn shop where you can at least see the thing before buying it. A VERY small and imploding niche there

M&S will never ever go bust because my Mum shops there and she's never wrong. In fact, when the nuclear holocaust all us 80s kids have been hanging round for finally happens, the final trace of life on Planet Earth will be cockroaches wandering round the sensible nightwear section of an otherwise devastated M&S, tutting that it's not the same quality since they brought all that lingerie nonsense in. You just don't get the double-stitched gussets, you see.
