Council sticks its head in the sand as our cars suffer
OUR roads are becoming more dangerous by the day due to poor weather and workmanship. When dealing with potholes, excuses after excuses but the holes are getting bigger and while the council prevaricates over the dubiety of its responsibility to the motorist or other users on our roads, there is no duty of care until someone is seriously injured.
The council will just stick its head in the sand while our cars get wrecked.
Enough is enough – take all your cars to the council headquarters along with the damage and protest until someone listens and make driving a joy on our roads again, not a nightmare to navigate. Stephen Johnstone Glasgow
READERS had their say on our story covering a GMB convenor’s comments on fly- tipping in Glasgow.
I see this kind of thing going on all the time.
Commercial premises – restaurants using pavement bins or dumping next to them.
Bags then end up being burst open by birds, foxes, rats etc. Jill Ferguson
Disgusting people. It gives Glasgow a bad name. Mairi Mackinnon
I used to live on Kent Road in the city centre and all you would see every weekend was the sight of piles of old furniture dumped on the corner.
People seem to think they could rip out the old flats and then just dump their rubbish anywhere in the street when they finished up.
They just don’t care.

Take a stroll along Sauchiehall Street and all you will see are piles of rubbish.
The city centre is just filthy. Helen Lang
It is the same in parks across Glasgow.
We don’t have enough bins, so rubbish just piles up next to the few bins that are there.
Brian McDonald
There should be heavier fines to put people off fly- tipping.
