Wednesday, April 05, 2006Bill Brady"Brady Bunch" protest! Back in the news today is the continuing process of finding agreement over the siting of the Borough's new "super school", previously mentioned in this blog. Two sites, Temple Memorial Park and Chuter Ede, have already been rejected after public outcries and criticism and now the current site of King George School in Nevison Avenue is on the receiving end of the same hostilities. Poor old Bill Brady one of the ward Councillors for Whiteleas has been put in an awkward position by his electorate. Over 900 residents have signed a petition objecting to the use of the Nevison Avenue site, and Bill has to be seen to be representing them, which laudably he is, whilst balancing their views with the opinions of Labour's leadership in the Town Hall, who would dearly love to be getting on with building the new school on the edge of town next to the Holder House estate. Why on earth can't everyone see that the most sensible, and probably the most acceptable, site to be developing the new school is on Temple Park Road, the site of the current Brinkburn school? It may well become the most common denominator in the end! Link The Shields Gazette |
