Printed Daily Post Letters Page 8th May :  LFC Planning Debate

Dear Editor
 
No where greater was the collapse in the Lib Dem Vote and swing to Labour than the Anfield Ward
 
No doubt a significant contributing factors was the closures of Leighton Dene and Boaler Street rehab facilities and care facilities in Venmore Street
the administration could now show a signal of listening to the people by reconsidering their decisions in respect of these locations
 
Over and above that is a real bitter resentment that the Lib Dems lied by stealth over the whole Anfield Stadium issue. The plan was never for a 60,000 stadium
 but a move towards a 75,000 seat stadium irrespective of the inability of the traffic schemes to cope
 
It was really disappointing at the first planning committee of the new municipal year the newly elected Labour Councillor for Anfield did not even appear,
showing the same disinterest of previous Lib Dem Councillors for Anfield for the biggest decision for Anfields future
 
It was truly noticed by all objectors with disdain
