SOUTHAMPTON'S wow factor? The travellers' site at Monks Brook. What a welcome to Southampton, when you leave the M27 at Swaythling. This site will cost in the region of £2m. The government may fund up to £1m, the remainder will have to come from our council tax. What other cuts will have to be made to pay for the site? To maintain this site will far out reach the token fee, if any of the travellers will be asked to pay.

Why won't the Liberal Democrat and Labour councillors listen to the residents? They were elected to represent the residents. Don't forget there is a election in May.
