Your Say Your Times

The Planning Dept at Braintree are hopeless - they dont care about conservation areas (where the rate-payers do) so dont be surprised if they totally ignore local feelings about yet more shoebox housing. − Quiet Life

When will the authorities in this town clamp down on the anti-social behaviour of the kids who hang around in the town at night?! We've constantly had debates and consultations and whatnot about what to do about the problem but nothing has been achieved. Take the problem to the parents of the kids responsible, make them fix the damage to the public toilets for free instead of closing them and inconveniencing (no pun intended) the general law abiding civilised public. − ravenmorpheus
