'Death of the High Street' and Trump vs May

Would you be willing to stop shopping online to save our High Street? And who's the better leader, Donald Trump or Theresa May?

Yesterday House of Fraser announced it's planning to close more than half its stores, including the ones in Cardiff and Cwmbran.
Poundworld is on the verge of administration, putting 5,000 jobs across the UK at risk, Carpetright, New Look, Mothercare, and M&S are just some of the other big names to announce closures while Toys R Us and Maplin are among those that have disappeared altogether.
Is this the final curtain for our High Street? Where are shops going wrong?

And foreign secretary Boris Johnson has been secretly recorded saying President Donald Trump would be better at handling Brexit than Prime Minister Theresa May. Do you agree? Would the UK would fare better in the Brexit negotiations under Trump? If you could, who would you choose to lead the country, Trump or May?
