| Again Bob makes good points. I believe we must now have an independent review of the past 20 years including pathfinder and NDAs checking meetings, minutes, interviewing and by allowing whistleblowing. Public interest demands nothing less than putting out the facts publicly to be seen by the eyes of Salford residents. |

| Well. A true left wing socialist like Paul tells it like it is ,the labour council ethnic and socially cleansing us. He knows what they are doing, I know what they are doing, we all know what they are doing, so why do people here still vote labour? Do we not need another party to look after our interests? Come on Paul,give us some guidance, who will you vote for this coming council and mayoral election? Will you vote for the ethnic and social cleansers? |

| You were lucky Felsey!
Well, of course, we had it tough. We used to 'ave to get up out of shoebox at twelve o'clock at night and lick road clean wit' tongue. We had two bits of cold gravel, worked twenty-four hours a day at mill for sixpence every four years, and when we got home our Dad would slice us in two wit' bread knife. |

| Well done Felsey, it's people like you who give the rest of us hope. You remind me of that Jennifer Lopez song, I'm still Jenni from the block. She grew up in a hellish part of the Bronx, a place full of gangbangers and drugs, where murder was as common as covid, and she got the hell out of there. As she so wonderfully sings, "I used to have a little, but now I've got a lot, I'm still Jenni from the block!" Anyway, just like Jenni, you got out of the hell that is Doncaster. There's a huge prison there now you know, the locals call it Doncatraz. Well done Felsey, you got out. You made it through the rain. You're our shining light. You're a Pathfinder. You're a LURP, a Long Range Reconnaissance Patrol trooper, one of the Special Forces that are dropped deep into hostile snake infested jungle, in order to get the lie of the land and do a bit of reconnaissance. We need guys like you, you give us hope. Even if we can't be you, we need you. You inspire us. God bless you Felsey. I hope that you become Mayor, I'll certainly vote for you. |

| It seems or seams that some people are more obsessed about coal than me some frustrated wanna be pit men out there eh.Yes i would re open coal mines to tap in to and use the 1000 years of reserves beneath our feet using carbon capture and storage build coal fired power stations with sulphurous capture like the one recently built in Pakistan built in just 2 years which is carbon neutral such a program would make the country fuel self sufficient i do like that idea just like the country was not so long ago when electricity was cheap and affordable and fuel poverty did not exist and people did not freeze to death of the cold ons figures 23 thousand 2019 figures of course the coal mined would also be used for over 100 different uses, The alternative under the big green con agenda is go nuclear the dirtiest fuel known to humanity and the most expensive present moment 132 billion to clean up the mess already made from this nuclear madness and billions more to build a pure bonkers idea of small reactors all over the country one accident will keep us lit up for good.Now back to the defensible spaces and the change of names issue i have noticed over the years how the developers and our friends in the north go about the destruction of a community first off a run down of services houses left empty planned blight de population leading to higher crime and fear of crime which leads people to move out the closing down of old peoples homes and the places people meet like community centres even local pubs then a few quid offered to compensate any body who wants to move which people will take just to have a few quid because lets face it its the deprived areas where people have little money that have been gentrified so then its down to our friend in the north to declare that no one wishes to live in this or that place so we must demolish the whole area but all is not lost because a saviour is willing to build luxury swanky apartments on the site of the former crime ridden rat hole of a place where no one wanted to live however the saviour only wants people with lots of money in this new community and of course a new name must be used to promote our new area something like Salford central and university sounds new and snappy am i being cynical i had a conversation with one of our friends in the north a few years ago i asked him why adequate houses were being demolished and he replied nothing wrong with the houses we do not want the people and by the plan envisaged for the area around Pendleton including the destruction of cherry tree court which is an absolute disgrace when people are desperate to find housing a time is coming soon when this crisis system is going to be held to account. |

| Another interesting article from PaulK thank you. Reminds me of my childhood having been born in a council house condemned by damp left empty for years with a deep hole in the kitchen floor where a body was unearthed. My young parents desperate for a home took it and used the hole as a play pen knowing where the kids would be - my dad a coal miner told mum the hole would be good training for when me and my elder brother grew to become workers down the pit. We did. A horrid black hole skivvy mine, my brother ran away to Australia in his late teens where he build the rail network serving steel works and went on to own the engines and track side land for properties that became the developments for million dollar homes. I was as keen to escape that coal mine and did thanks to God. If childhood defines us it does not have to rule our future. My Tory membership in Derbyshire and properties in Salford define me as an ex nightmare childhood poor kid that followed his brothers footsteps to climb out of the slum land hole. |

| I suggest you look at the recent history and past of Salford it is well documented that self improvement and gentrification has not delivered for or improved the lives of the people who have lived in the cleared out areas many cleared from their homes by dodgy deals planned blight and down right theft of peoples property honest hard working people who have lived in Salford all of there lives and were forced out by landlordism cultural cleansing and the rule of and the tyranny of money/ priced out. I have lived in the city all my life and have been gentrified out of areas of the city over the years many times and many others have leading to a lot of stress and leading to many deaths paticularly of older people. Always thought that when a person or state or an area changes its name they are dodgy and are re writing or covering up something and same goes for people who write posts but do not give a name you should have the courage of your convictions i would say many areas of Salford had great areas and strong caring communities that were destroyed by so called improvements.And i would question that gentrification and gated communities are not an improvement they have created fracture alienation and fortress them and us mentality and a massive fear factor for the people who live in them. I saw an advertisement on chapel street on a new build on the site of where the ali ghar once stood locals will know where i mean the sign said to prospective buyers buy an apartment meet the locals and become one problem is the locals by design have mostly been cleared our so the only local you will meet is somebody who as moved from another part of the country that is gentrification and improvement.Its amazing that the university built in Salford on strawberry hill trinity lower broughton the Adelphi windsor bridge frederick road kersal and that i being a local know of just a couple of people who studied there a great example of gentrification the university get the name changes and have nothing to do with the locals except when they employ them serving food or cleaning up the mess and of course who can forget when the locals who contributed to the building of the swimming pool and leisure centre were banned from using it i wonder why is it class. Identity defines your history once your street defined where you came from i came from david st Sussex ST flax st silk st Adelphi Blackfriars look up the policy of and the agenda of/ DEFENSIBLE SPACE / I could have improved myself but i am content to be a failure here is another piece of history if it was not for coal you would not be here today. |

| Well,we all know that Paul Kelly likes the idea of burning coal, and we all know our most gentrified folk in our borough that live in Worsley absolutely love wattle and daub. Apart from the filth it creates,burning coal would actually be good for our houses,it would help them breath. It would get rid of the stagnant moisture that causes that black mold. It would not be good for us. I can see the point Paul makes here about gentrification, and it gets me as well, but I also see the point truth hurts makes. In the first slum clearances after the war, people were moved to them new estates round chapel st, st stephen st etc. These houses all had running hot water, baths,inside bogs etc and were well built structurally.If you went onto the stairs and communal hallways of these places,they were always clean and smelled of disinfectant. Then in the seventies and eighties, people just let them fester and they started to stink.people did not want to live there anymore.The only thing I can put it down to,is all the old ladies who used to keep them places clean had all either died or become infirm.The younger generation were just not houseproud as we used to say. The old ladies,the old school who had come from the old houses had seen hard times in the thirties,and 2 wars. They had nothing, and it had been drummed into them that putting on a display of cleanliness was the one way they could show they were respectable.Apart from that ,being clean was the only way of controlling public health in the old overcrowded housing. In the old houses rents were dirt cheap, but in the new houses rents were more expensive. Consumerism crept in as well, so where women had once stayed at home, they now had to work to get money to pay all the bills.They kept their own houses ok, but perhaps they couldn't be arsed with the staircases and halls.Like I said,after a while ,nobody wanted to live there,so they were flogged off to developers who did them up. On st stephens side of chapel street they were done up.On the other side they were all pulled down. Its all a load of bollocks this housing mess in Salford. I don't know why we waste our time talking about it, because it will never be right here. |

| Gentrification -- I quite like the idea of self improvement and improving the area in which I live. What's wrong with it ? Do you still want to live in a wattle and daub hovel and burn coal ? |
