  1. same here mate stolen quad police doing nowt.still looking for mine.il keep eye out for yrs.im not giving up but god help him

    • They need to be taught a lesson and it’ll not be long before someone has had enough and does it.. nothing but lowlife scum bags… one of my mates who lives over there seen them on a geeen quad other day if that’s yours?
      Where on earth are all these things getting hidden?????

      • the bikes and quad fitting description, they have been seen on all of them and still obviously stash them nearby and will probably burn them ready for the next lot to be stolen.how the hell is this continuing when all the authorities are aware

    • Me mate seen a green quad riding round by the local their

      Where on earth do they hide all these things they steal?

      • They hide them in a garage at Russell crescent and behind the houses at wood view may crescent

  2. Cant believe nothing is getting done about the scum bags around here.

    Carol bell- councillor = rubbish
    Paul trippett – councillor = rubbish
    Gary elliot – councillor = rubbish
    Julie and keith Thompson – only on the council because their chum trippett is on and have to have their noses in were its not required
    .
    Sheila appleton – whos she??? Says it all

    Elaine dickinson – another mystery.

    John burton – tony Blair’s chum has had his nose in for long enough and now not required.

    What we need is people who are strong enough to say that is enough and tackle issues head on!!!

    Margaret eadsforth – promises the worlds delivers nothing

    Lucy hovells an absolute waste of space and does things that benefit her and her close knit pals……

    • Sheila quit the council over a year ago. The parish were asked to take her details off the public record months ago. As her daughter I’m actually pissed off her details are still on public record.

    • Just saying that this information is incorrect as my mother “Sheila” is no longer a councillor.

    • well said.should be people like u who the community needs.absolute piss take the whole lot of them includung the police.as for them they need there faces all over the papers along with the hundreds of crimes they have commited listed underneath what they have got away with.wonder what would happen then.

    • What sort of thing would you like to see them do? I have no idea what Parish Councils are able to do in these situations?

      • They can pressure the police they can pressure the local authorities to take action. More than a member of public can. Whats the point of having them if they cant do anything???

    • What sort of thing would you like them to do? Sadly I suspect there’s not much they actually can do. Any suggestions?

    • I do agree that the councillors need to step up and tackle this problem as a priority. The good local people have a right to feel safe and live in peace.

      For the rest of us, it is beneficial to keep posting anything relating to local crime on here. The police are aware of this page, we there they act upon it is another question but at least it is a log of all the incidences witnessed and the frustration people are dealing with the lack of action by the police and the local Councillors.

      I would suggest that every time you call the police it is logged here or at least you keep a record. Doing so will be much easier to bring this to light with the local and national papers as I’m sure they will he intrigued with the misery and the suffering us locals are dealing with daily. The police use of informants is one thing, but not at the expense of people’s lives. It’s just not acceptable!

      Final point is its worth putting pressure on the home group housing people. They have a duty and their own policies to deal with antisocial families living in their housing.

      • I wouldnt have any issue with councillor if they actually done the best for village. Sadly this is the case i feel they do it for reputation and nothing else.

    • Mrs Thompson hasn’t attended a monthly meeting for over a year ,and Mr thompson would better serve the parish by making sure the tenants of his houses don’t ruin peoples lives

  3. Still searching for the 2 Honda crf 250 and 450 bikes..
    we are not giving up til we get them back and they get what they deserve
