Ben Abbotts says it is time clean up our area

Bromley Lib Dem councillor Ben Abbotts is leading the campaign to clean up graffiti and litter in our area.

Despite record Council Tax levels, Conservative Council leaders have failed to keep our streets clean.

Ben said, "Bromley residents rightly take a pride in our Borough, but too many parts of our area are blighted by the curse of graffiti and other eyesores.

"It's time for tough action. Those responsible for the blight of graffiti in our area need to get the message that we will not tolerate it."

"All of us need to play our part in getting graffiti and litter removed from our streets, by reporting it to the Council as soon as we see it so that it can be removed"

Ben, who is the Lib Dem Environment Spokesman on Bromley Council, is calling on local residents to contact him with information on graffiti and dumped rubbish in their streets by emailing him at cleanup@ben4bromley.org.uk, or by writing to him at Ben Abbotts, 3 High Street, Bromley, BR1 1LF.
