Having walked around Bromsgrove town centre on Saturday, I would like to take this opportunity to congratulate the present council and sitting MP on turning Bromsgrove from a desirable place to live to a town that is bordering on a DUMP! The roads are a disgrace, with most pavements in a dangerous condition. There is rubbish and graffiti everywhere, and is it too much to ask that when work is undertaken that the sites are tidied and left as the workmen found them? Our MP is an expert at getting her picture in local publications, but she has done very little for the people of Bromsgrove. To the people of Bromsgrove I say 'I suppose we get what we deserve'.
