Interestingly the same bloke owns most of the Properties on Staverley street,Edlo, and Pillar House and the other bordered up mansion on South Parade!. To his credit Tory MP has been putting a lot of time and effort into sorting out Edlo,Stainy etc Nana Ross needs to kick some ass and get a grip of the Town Centre, and that includes getting the Woke Police and Crime Commisioner and even more Woke Chief Constable to commit some resources into Doncaster, all they seem bothered about is Sheffield and in CC Lauren Pultneys case her main agenda seems to be Staff wellbeing Dogs!!!Edlington is easy to sort, comp purchase those shacks which are old Pit houses and build some nice stuff like they have further up, then get Alan Billing and Lauren Pultney to put Police officers back in the Nick, and make sure they patrol the Problem streets, they do hot spot Policing now where the Local authority pays em to target know high crime areas, using date time analysis So they put a Bobby on a street corner for 30 mins at a time when they know there is anti social behaviour ie outside an Off-licence at 9pm on Pocket money day!
What's ed been doing filo?
I mentioned a few weeks ago that is been reading Slouching Towards Utopia by the Berkley economics professor Brad DeLong.His central theme was that there were two ways of managing Capitalism.The approach through most of the 20th Century was defined by Frederick Von Hayek. "The Market giveth. The Market taketh away. Blessed be the name of The Market."That's what leads to Donny and Eddington getting their souls ripped out. If we glorify The Market as something which humanity cannot and should not control, once a town has lost its economic raison d'etre, there's no reason why it should survive.DeLong's cry is that this isn't the only way. From 1945 until 1980, America and the UK followed a different form of Capitalism, defined by Karl Polanyi as "The Market was made for Mankind, not Mankind for the Market."This was a philosophy where the (undoubted) benefits that market capitalists economies have were controlled and directed by powerful Governments, which prevented the worst excesses.We have been dominated by Hayek for nearly half a century. People have forgotten that there is another way. One that gave us massive increases in economic wealth AND shared it out more fairly than ever. And it took a Britain, much of whose infrastructure had been destroyed by the Luftwaffe, and much of what hadn't was Victorian slum anyway, and it rebuilt a decent living space.We CAN do that again. It doesn't need a revolution. It just needs a realisation that The Market should be controlled, not left to be unleashed.

It's tedious.
Moved out of a new build in Edlo after having a meeting with the waste of space mayor and she basically said they can’t do much about the anti social behaviour on the Royal estate
