What on earth does it mean?
Key Derby building could remain as 'vibrant cultural and community space'
Déda has gone into voluntary liquidation
The city council says it is working to keep the former home of Derby dance centre Déda as a community and cultural centre. There had been fears that the building, which is owned by the council, would be used for other purposes after Deda went into voluntary liquidation in August.
As one of the comments asks -
“ vibrant cultural and community space ”
What on earth does it mean ?
Ironically, 'vibrant' has also become a sarcastic term for anything deemed to be fashionably multicultural, almost as if the headline writer was adding a drop or two of sarcasm to the story. I'd like to think so.
'Vibrant cultural community space', means ethnic minorities doing things that are paid for out of confiscatory taxes.
ReplyDeleteIf it's the same result as where I live, it will be turned into a community centre "for all to enjoy". However, anyone who is not of a particular religion, will find it is 'already booked' when they try and arrange a function, even one a year or so ahead.

Probably better if the Deda Centre becomes the Dead Centre of Derby.
ReplyDeletePut down mattresses and keep the centre open to house illegal immigrants?
ReplyDeleteNo, I didn't think so.
Frightening.
ReplyDeleteTammly - yes, "Subsidy Space" would be more accurate.
ReplyDeletePenseivat - sounds like the kind of thing which is said to be a factor in waiting lists for council housing in certain parts of London.
Sam - it isn't very lively now.
DJ - yes, could be done but won't be done.
James - certainly doesn't suggest a vibrant future.
