LACK OF CONCERN FOR OUR COMMUNITY

Well! What's the point of having this Blog If I can't use it?
Having had the Thurrock Gazette early for a change, I was able to bring up some of the Crime Issues at the S.O.R.A meeting on Thursday, that affected our part of Ockendon. Two Officers were at this meeting.
1. West Road Senior Citizens Complex re firebugs and lack of response by police.
2. Bogus Water Officials conning an OAP.
3. Young Lad being attacked and beaten in Mollands Lane.
These issues were reported in the Thurrock Gazette.
I asked through the Chairperson, whether these officers could give an update as to the position of these investigations and if there were any arrests.
THEY COULD NOT ANSWER. They did not have any information and looked dumfounded about all three issues.
I requested that a question be put to the Council as to why had it taken over 14 months to agree to install video cameras in the OAP Complex area, considering the nature of the offences being committed. Usual excuses.
RED TAPE-RED TAPE-REDTAPE-RED TAPE-RED TAPE-RED TAPE-RED TAPE
I Bet it doesn't take that long
when the
Councilors Vote for their Increases!
