Morrisons: Why is ex-Mayor supporting failure to replace ‘like for like’?

Dear Editor, I AM appalled at Cllr Ann Jackson’s comments in the latest Bow West Labour flyer. Why is the ex-Mayor speaking in support of developers who only want to profit from Tower Hamlets council’s failure to replace our Morrisons-Safeway’s supermarket ‘like for like’?... » MORE

Morrisons: proposed supermarket building won’t be welcome

Dear Editor, IT IS good to hear that Tesco is ‘committed’ to opening a new Metro store in Bow. How much we all want a supermarket back in the Roman Road. But I am sure they would want the store to be part of a building that is welcomed by the residents and visitors to the area. The proposed building doesn’t do that... » MORE

Morrisons: It’s ludicrous boarding up Safeway supermarket site

Dear Editor, I HAVE just come back from a two week break to find the Safetway supermarket site site in Roman Road in Bow has been boarded up. What a monstrosity, only yards from front windows of tenants in Cruden House. Their view now is of ugly, unnecessary blue boards—It’s ludicrous!... » MORE

Advertiser, August 14We were allowed to fire real bullets—but never felt need to shoot anyone

Dear Editor, THE police and Army regularly had stands when I was a child where you could handle the guns (Cops 'U-turn' move over letting kids hold submachine-guns, Advertiser website). Many a summer’s day at fetes and shows was spent with my pals handling Sterling sub-machine guns, self-loading rifles and even machine guns. In the cadets, we were allowed to fire real bullets, but never felt the need to go out and shoot anyone... » MORE

Advertiser, Aug-14Would Galloway agree with Hezbollah training kids with guns?

Dear Editor, HOW about the kids of the same age as those at the Poplar summer fete where police let them handle sub-machine guns (nine and seven) being trained as militia fighters by Hezbollah that MP George Galloway supports?... » MORE

Tower Hamlets council needs to listen to the voices of people over Bancroft library

I am saddened but not surprised that the petition to Gordon Brown to save the Bancroft Library has been rejected. It is in my view hypocritical to say that these matters should be left to local councils when they appear to be bent on such vandalism. First... » MORE
