Leaves on East Dulwich streets

[CPR Dave]

It's not entitlement FFS. We're paying the council more than £2k a year in tax. It's not too much to expect them to clean the streets and drains of leaves and dog shit for all that money, as well empty one bin once a fortnight. 

The streets round here are a disgrace. The council are paid to make them not so. If they can't do it they should say so and stop charging money for the non-service.

Which streets are you talking about, exactly?

All the streets near me seem quite clear of leaves.

And why should council workers have to pick up other people's dog shit? 

People who don't pick up after their dogs should not be allowed to have them.

The original post was made by someone else, not the person whose post I was replying to!

And the original post only mentioned Whateley Road (which has been clear of leaves whenever I have walked down it) and another unspecified road.

My question was directed at CPR Dave, who (as was clear in the post I quoted)  said "The streets round here are a disgrace".
