There are rats everywhere. I found rat droppings in my close. I am not the only one. There are rats in our backcourt which is "sealed" from the outside world, no open doors (allegedly!), only "closed closes". Why our backcourt? Commercial bins - 6 premises where food waste is regularly left on the ground or the bins are not shut. You would be surprised at the food waste. O ce upon a time, we hung our washing in the back court and sat drinking tea in tbe sun. Now it is a hellhole and nobody does anything about it. A filthy swamp on days like today caused by "acclaimed" restaurants who do not care about vermin or neighbours. GCC agreed to this when commercial premises were told to get their bins off the street. But do not enforce cleanliness. They are a disgrace. Rats bring in disease. There are cities in the dwvelooing world that are cleaner than ours.
For the council to sort the problem they have to accept that there is a problem!! So we need Susan Aitken and co to accept the invitation to see this mess for themselves, the City I love is turning into a tip, this needs action now!!
