During the last four years, the Labour council has; reduced the frequency of grass cutting and tree pruning, ploughed up miles of pavements and replaced them with tarmac, trimmed and dimmed almost all street lighting to a level below the light produced by the old lamps they replaced and charged for the collection of several bulky items (which was previously free).
Now they have proposed to stop locking park gates at night and are consulting on by-weekly refuse collections with the possibility of residents having to pay for their garden waste bin.
It is clear this Labour council does not care about the environment and is determined to undo the work of the previous Conservative council, which sought to improve our streets and borough. With all these cuts Councillor Bond is less 007 and more Edward Scissorhands!
