WHAT'S up with the citizens of our great town?

We moan and groan about council, rates, taxes, refuse collection, road congestion, car parking housing, rents, etc, etc, in pubs, workplaces and homes.

We know things are not right, but we do nothing. I myself spent 70 odd years doing nothing.

I have just started to make some effort to express my concern about these issues and do a little something.

I did attend the STOP march on Saturday, April 9 from Faringdon Park to the Civic Offices.

I have already written to the council about these ridiculous proposals of redevelopment.

So citizens of Swindon wake up, get up and do something, write, march, protest, vote.

Get your MP, councillor or housing officer to do something that's right. After all, we elect and pay them high salaries to carry out our wishes and to do what is right for our great town, created by Isambard Kingdom Brunel, GWR and others who changed it from Swine Town into the prosperous town we are now.
