Plans for proposed new Penyffordd Primary School

are to be published in July. It will be interesting to see how the sudden influx of parent's cars at start and end of day will be dealt with. There's talk of a pick up / drop off point.

Residents wanted to be involved in the design process but were stonewalled by FCC.

How many cars will be turning up at end of school?
50, 100 or 150?  School capacity somewhere near 300.
Pick up time will be a problem. It will be interesting to see how they attempt to deal with it.
Local residents are expressing concern.

The above is happening away from Chester Rd where the current school is.
Should be quieter for those of us who live near present school. :)

Next Month's Election

So
We have Lib Dems wanting to allow 50,000 refugees in the country
Welsh Labour  and Plaid Cymru want to turn Wales into a Refugee Sanctuary
Labour nationally all over the place
Tories wanting to repeal fox hunting ban?
UKIP a spent force
Lord Farage (sic) has done his job

I have to wait nearly 3 weeks for a particular doctor appointment
It can be a 90 minute wait if I go on the day
A&E can be a nightmare unless you're actually dying

Some old people struggle with money whilst immigrants are let in and given
free housing, free cash , free schooling, free medical
They have loads of babies as well

Not sure I'm going to bother voting.

postscript: re Lib Dems 50k refugees. There's 100,000 people been waiting for a house for over 5 years.....
