Leader's clay feet
4:12pm Tuesday 10th July 2001
As a strong Labour supporter, I have to my horror found that our council leader has 'clay feet'.
Why else has he let down the children of Grahame Park? All they wanted was a football pitch, or even somewhere to kick a ball around. Yes, there is going to be a small playground at the far end of the estate, but still nowhere to play 'kick the ball' at our end.
I feel sad that our council leader was not strong enough to hold the college to its agreement that we could have a football pitch. After all, they did secure the land they wanted.
It's sorry kids, nothing for you again keep kicking your ball around the estate, and annoy the tenants. That's the way to grow up.
