Bill Third

BILL THIRD , resident of St Peter’s Road gives a typically vigorous response to Andrew Cartwright’s appeal for feedback in June.
“Dear Andrew, As you may recall, the residents of St.Peter’s Road have already clearly made their views known – they do not want twin bins, they do not want wheelie bins, they do not want top-down solutions that put their interests well behind those of the council, their contractors and the curtsey to the flawed EU legislation that is at the basis of all this bin tyranny.
Granted, we do need to improve the council’s performance – but what the last communal bin farce showed is how deeply incompetent the council officers are. Kind Regards, Bill Third.”
And Andrew replied: “Dear Bill, I have to say that I profoundly disagree with what you say, however, I will respect your wishes and seek alternative contributions. As I say, I am always happy to discuss. Best wishes, Andrew.
Cllr Andrew Cartwright.”
In a comment to the Voice Bill added that he wished Andrew well, but felt he would have a difficult job in squaring the circle. ‘Whatever solution is devised, it will need the kind of widespread support that comes from proper widespread consultation of residents’.
