Mindless Destruction

At around 8pm on Tuesday 9th August 2011 a gang of hooded young people went into an NCP car park in central Leicester where at night we park up to ten ambulances. They entered the car park with petrol bombs - picked out one of the vehicles, broke a window and threw the petrol bomb in. The ambulance was totally destroyed and the one next to it badly scorched and damaged.

Age Concern are all totally devastated by this mindless act.

The vehicle was not new and so we are unlikely to get much back on insurance. To replace it however - bearing in mind it is purpose built, we will have to find in the region of £45,000.
Our ambulances transport very frail people to our centre, based in the middle of the city, serving inner city people. Those who committed the crime (city based people) have badly hurt/damaged the older members of their own community.

If you do visit Leicester its best and not wise to look too closely into the flower beds
Smirnoff Vodka and beer cans many to be seen.
Leicester City Council can I have a job litter picking?

Stop The Rot, Squat the Lot

This reminds me of the disgusting way in which Rutland County Council
treats homeless people, only this week I find a Oakham born man around 50
years of age is sleeping on the street of Oakham. Rutland County Council
direct him to Leicester, Spire Homes suggest a £50 a night B&B in Leicester.
He has no money and says I have lived in Oakham all my life why
would I want to live in Leicester?

Is it not time Rutland County Council stopped dumping its homeless on Liecesters
doorstep. Earlier this year I blogged about the families dumped in Leicester and mentioned
the 40 bed hotel Rutland County Council purchased in Barleythorpe. I suggested this
was opened for the homeless as it has remained unused since it purchase last Christmas.
My data protection request of Rutland County Council included a curt e-mail
distributed by the Deputy Leader (Conservative) Terry king
"Brookes is starting a campaign to open the hotel for the homeless.
What a good thought Mr King or do you not care about all the
Rutland homeless you are forcing out of their county.

I have written this week to my county councillors, both Conservative, requesting
the Councils policy to help the homeless because it appears more and more
they don't have one and pass the problem onto Leicester.
