At Last

 Well finally,  I am delighted to report something positive - that Staffordshire County Council Highways Department is getting around to dealing with the constant flooding in Wrinehill. It appears to be carrying out all the repair and remedial work suggested (by the wrongfully defamed Councillor) and the land owner (who was being vilified)  in 2023.   Had action been taken in a timely manner so much inconvenience and damage to the road and verges and personal property  could have been avoided.   It is also amazing and salutary that all the mud was recently cleared by a local resident.

This work also highlights the mis/disinformation that was circulating at the time regarding the cause of the flooding and confusing and getting in the way of a remedy - ie it was the fault of the the HS2 project and that it should be the one to take responsibility (and pay for any damage) etc..  That, in my view, was potentially libellous, and certainly rubbish because it was untrue and proven to be so!  But misinformation and deflecting blame appear to be political party strategies (bad ones and guess which Party!) which need to be called out.  

It might not have escaped some people's attention that elections are coming up in a few month's time - also a county-wide reorganisation of local government.   

Hopefully this long overdue work will resolve the issue.   Although clearing of the drains and grids will not go amiss.   Go Highways!
