WE stupidly relied upon Government to govern the banks – the car crash that followed will result in hardship for ordinary mortals, decimate quality of life and lose lives.
County councillors with highly lucrative portfolios seldom visit the patch where their electors reside, let alone attempt to catch a bus to get there from Worcester or use the bus to get to Worcestershire Royal Hospital.
Some county councillors use party-aligned district councillors as their eyes and ears on the ground, only pressing the flesh at election time.
I am planning a mid- January public meeting on the issue of bus services and want to hear if people would like a daytime or evening and also if they wish to speak. Please email me at martinlawrence4chase@ gmail.com.
