Pothole repair

Just before the snow several potholes repaired in this area all need doing again suggesting inferior repairs.

On Barnsley Road outside St Patrick’s school the sunken patch has been attempted five times to make good.

We watched a typical pothole repair, it took all of 15 seconds – shovel full of Tarmac, pat pat, never even brushed the hole clean or primed it.

Next day Tarmac was all over the road.

What a waste of taxpayers’ cash.

Anti-Brexit campaign

On March 29, 2017, the Lord Privy Seal told the House of Lords that, acting on the democratic will of the people, the UK was leaving the EU and that there was no turning back.

In advance of the EU referendum, a 27-year-old law student and co-founder of the Our Future Our Choice anti-Brexit group, declared, “if anyone’s going to stop this thing and protect British people from something that’s going to harm them, it’s going to be someone like me’. This young man, however, appears to have a bright future waiting for him within the EU. Many, many more will not!

However, having failed in that task, he now declares HE is going to ‘deliver the will of the people’ by joining other groups in a last-ditch anti-Brexit war. There is no lack of financial backing from wealthy donors! Indeed, in support of the above group Best for Britain has donated a share of their own Crowd Funding. Politicians, ex-politicians are not to be without influence in this determined effort to thwart Brexit!

This cash, however, is a mere drop in the ocean when compared to the £400,000 received from funder and staunch supporter of the EU, George Soros.
