I’M SICK to death about hearing about the removal of the benches.

There are many benches outside and if old people want to sit down in the shopping centre then they should bring walking frames with seats in them and little baskets for their shopping.

If they are so disabled then why don’t they get help with their shopping?

There are far more important things to be protesting about like the knocking down of our pubs or the mistreatment of ordinary people by this horrible government.

So give it a rest.
