THE historic heart of Leith is to be transformed with more pedestrian friendly streets and new picnic benches following a major National Lottery award. The £1.9 million grant from the Heritage Lottery Fund will kick start a whole range of work (Evening News 7^th August). Who is kidding who here, this another one of Councillor Gordon “The Slime Ball’s” Munro’s schemes to score brownie points?

Firstly, to close part of the shore to traffic will put pressure on the already congested roads, currently being disrupted by the new tram system as it is. Secondly, let’s take the weather into consideration here. We are not convinced that the phrase “Sunny Leith” lives up to its reputation. Sitting outside in the rain thinking of sunnier climates is not our cup of tea.

Councillor Munro lives in cloud cuckoo land and should come down to reality.
