Why is it that seaside venues abroad have their streets and shop fronts scrubbed clean every day at 5am? Weymouth is a beautiful place, ideal to be the leading holiday centre in England. Yet our streets from the station to the front are stained, chewing gum blobs everywhere and with no directions.
Gridlock and I suspect poison air on the front, the bridge opening up to eight times a day causing more pollution, more traffic jams, and I blame the clever people who took our roundabouts and left us with chaos at Boot Hill and elsewhere.
Sitting on the harbourside, a day visitor informed me of the litter in the car park.
I am used to it, but what other visitors from cruise ships etc feel I dread to think.
The young people of the town are relying on tourism to have the dignity of work. Weymouth needs a young dynamic elected mayor to give the town direction.
