Sir.–I would like to ask why Basingstoke council can’t do more to combat light pollution in Basingstoke? With everything we are being told about climate change etc, why is there the need for excessive amounts of lamp-posts.
10:57am Friday 26th February 2010
Sir.–I read Councillor Hussey’s recent letter with interest. I, too, had contacted county councillor, Mrs Snaith-Tempia, with my concerns about what will be provided for Basingstoke during the closure of the library. She did not reply to me, but arranged for a reply from an officer of the library service.
10:51am Friday 26th February 2010
Sir.–I felt compelled to write in respect of the fiasco surrounding the election of the Mayor of Basingstoke and Deane Borough Council for 2010 to 2011.

Sir.–I would like to respond to the letter in Thursday’s Gazette, February 4, regarding ‘Disabled Parking Cheats’.

Sir.-As two former mayors of the borough we would like to put on record how deeply concerned we are over the recent events for the appointment of next year’s borough mayor.

Sir.–The role of the mayor is not to be a political pawn or indeed, perhaps in this case, a political punchbag, but to represent the people of Basingstoke in an honourable and respectful way.
8:51am Friday 5th February 2010
Sir.– I have been watching with interest the developments in Councillor Phil Heath’s demise since he was expelled from the Conservatives in 2008.We watch him and his wife set up a new party which does not appear to have been overwhelming in its impact on the town, and now colleagues and officers appear to be making complaints about his behaviour, or conduct. Cllr Heath maintains there is a hidden agenda as his ex-Tory colleagues do not want him to be mayor. In my experience, Cllr Heath has always been a maverick and has shot from the hip, and when I had dealings with him I had to question his understanding of the facts.
8:42am Friday 5th February 2010
Sir.–Over the Christmas and New Year period, I, like many others, was busy juggling shopping with the weather and numerous other commitments. On at least three occasions, I found myself in Church Street by the disabled parking spaces.
