(Letter to the South Wales Evening Post)
Councillor May really ought to read my letters more carefully before rushing to score political points. (Have Your Say, Friday 9th December)
Far from contradicting myself or accusing the council of “doing nothing”, my earlier letter makes specific mention of the work of the Swansea Council Recycling Team and Swansea University Student Union.
The main point of my letter was to call on those landlords, tenants and others who are not currently engaging with the process to play their part in making Uplands & Brynmill a clean, tidy and pleasant place to live.
The work that I am doing, in partnership with council departments and others is designed to complement and enhance what is already being done, not to compete with it.
If my letter did come across as a bit spiky that is simply an expression of the frustration that local residents, including myself, feel at still being plagued with these issues despite years of discussion at public meetings.
Yours,
Keith M Ross, Swansea Green Party

Letter published in full in today’s Evening Post, (http://www.thisissouthwales.co.uk/Frustration-lack-action/story-14132591-detail/story.html) but for some reason they have witheld my name. Perhaps they think I’ve been getting too much publicity lately!
