You've let us down Cllr St John

Sir, May I express my anger and disbelief at the picture you published last week (Advertiser Jan 14) The picture you printed showed Cllr St John of Anston grinning like a Cheshire cat and cocking a snook at the people of Anston, whilst standing on what loo

Here in theparish of Anston we have been fighting a losing battle for years with the Council to have a skate park installed for our kids.

Cllr St John, as well as his position as Rotherham Borough councillor for Anston and Woodsetts, is also a parish councillor for Anston.

Over the years we have been asking for a skate park . . . the only real opposition we had was from Cllr St John himself.

He did not want the old rundown tennis courts converted to a skate park. His opposition to the project is well known to both myself and others who attend the parish meetings.

During the years of meetings with the council he has had no imput or shown any interest in the project.

It makes my blood boil when I see him standing on the skate park, his interests clearly lie in other parts of Rotherham and not in Anston, otherwise he would be standing on a skate park in Anston surrounded by our kids.

I have noticed on the web that Cllr St John is standing down from his position as councillor in May, GOOD RIDDANCE, as he has done nothing for Anston over the years except to keep the Labour seat warm.

If he will not put Anston first, we don't want him.
