The writing has been on the wall since the late 1800s when Germany and the USA overtook us and the Empire became more of a burden than a money maker. British industry started to go into decline back then and was accelerated by two world wars. We didn't grasp the nettle and didn't adjust. Just clung to the past. As a result, places like Sunderland lost their reason to exist.
