"Who owns the park anyway? And more importantly, who pays for its continued upkeep? We, the local residents." That's the bit that isn't grasped Ian. At Lampton Road there is an attitude amongst some of "if the community wants to go it alone then stuff them, let them pay for it." They don't seem to understand that we already do. It's the same attitude that we see in cases such as Isleworth Public Hall, where assets are being handed to "community ownership" but with the information and assistance needed to make it work being deliberately withheld. They don't seem to acknowledge that the community pays their wages and as such is entitled to expect all the help it needs. |
