Improved to Good Article status by The Rambling Man (talk). Nominated by Valereee (talk) at 15:26, 29 July 2020 (UTC).[reply]

  • Hi Valereee, I think you mean Swindon in the hook, not Leicester? Otherwise article was promoted to GA on 25 July; article is well written and cited inline throughout to reliable sources; a check on a sample of sources showed no issues with overly close paraphrasing; the £20 million is stated in the article and sourced offline; a QPQ has been carried out - Dumelow (talk) 07:10, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
Yep, that's what I meant. —valereee (talk) 17:52, 4 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]
