Readers' letters

• Stalemate situation

  SIR – Re “Carnegie clean-up”, D Lawson’s appeal to have Windhill’s neglected Carnegie Library cleaned up (Letters, June 16). Ward Councillors, Lib-Dem and Labour, have pushed at times for the site to be cleaned up/developed and occasionally something has been done. read more

• School congestion

  SIR – I am really getting agitated about the new school at Peel Park in Peel Park Drive. read more
