They ignore the vulnerable who access exhibitionist road. They will end up putting them in hospital (the start of which we have seen today) and then charge their families a fortune for visiting them. <br /><br />They hoard this money under the illusion that its to mend the roads, and improve transport, whilst they have achieved spending millions on prisoner of conscience hewn stone (as a resident I am appalled by this) it is not an improvement its a death trap. They parade their hollow tin elephants, circus acts (besides themselves) to celebrate the opening of this sham, and in their parrellel universe are trying to take money from accessible transport companies and possibly charging disabled people to have a blue badge. <br /><br />They are destroying local businesses from Portobello Road to the Kings Road, but then why expect them to understand what it takes to run a business, they never have, they only understand 'take' . <br /><br />So much for their Big Society, BS, Caring for the most vulnerable, blah blah. Pooter and his mob care only for what they can get, not what they can give. <br /><br />Get rid of them.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1690720220183337557.post-12929301754528562152012-02-15T22:13:43.553+00:002012-02-15T22:13:43.553+00:00We residents will suffer as the small shops are be...We residents will suffer as the small shops are being driven out by parking which the council could control and business rates which they cannot. It is my opinion that this suits the council ,indeed I think they are doing what they can to speed things up. You only have to look at Portobello Road to see that they are doing their best to destroy the market and the surrounding shops. Maybe they think that a new concrete jungle will be more lucrative for them. It will not bring the thousands of tourists that both Kings Road and Portobello Road do . Who will stop them? Who stopped the appalling waste that is Exibition Road?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1690720220183337557.post-14067064018826545022012-02-15T20:26:00.109+00:002012-02-15T20:26:00.109+00:00When Cllr Cockell and his crowd are turning up the...When Cllr Cockell and his crowd are turning up the parking charges to pay for follies like Exhibition Road I bet they dont think of stories like the one about the hospital<br /><br />Our councillors are failing us as our representativesKensington Residentnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1690720220183337557.post-42293896291273684772012-02-15T20:24:01.965+00:002012-02-15T20:24:01.965+00:00Sad story Hospital Visitor.
