No sod dug until January

Tonight is the continuing saga of Royston/Wardieburn Community Centre and its replacement. A senior official arrives to inform the committee that the budget means another 400 metres squared are to be knocked off the building so bang goes the community hall...take it or leave it...

No sight of a member of the Administration to offer an explanation...I tell you, if this is the Coalition's idea of proper consultation they have a lot to learn.

So, a community centre which should have been opening its doors in September loses its function hall (to be replaced with a space half its size) gets chipped at metre by metre and no chance of a sod being dug until January 09.
