HOW shortsighted of Weymouth & Portland Borough Council to stop spraying the footpaths and pavements on Portland with weedkiller this spring.
OK, it will save a few grand of our money in the short term, but there’s mini volcano-type lumps and splits in paths and pavements all over the island as weeds and shrubs fight to get through the Tarmac.
This will cost tens of thousands of pounds of our money to repair.
Not only that, they are a trip hazard too. Give yourself a pat on the back who ever made that bright decision.
