Stratford BID seems to be badly run, mired in squabbling, and lost the support of a lot of businesses years ago: https://stratfordobserver.co.uk/news/stratford-bid-ballot-to-continue-despite-concerns/

A mate of mine ripped the ar$e of Coventry BID, then tried to push for its closure.

As with everything like this, look at the administration and who stands to benefit!
