I have had a lot of complaints from residents about the building in Churchill Road, Wisbech, that Cambridgeshire County Council used to lease.

The building is a standalone building owned by the secretary of state for health. I have been in touch with them but as yet no reply or action.

I asked whether they could send out someone from one of their many departments to clear all the foliage that is getting persistently worse.

We are fed up with getting treated like second class citizens in the north of Cambridgeshire.

I have also had sight of a document that stated that investment in Wisbech has been below average for the last 25 years.

Also, the first picture shows a cover on the grass verge opposite Robert Hale estate agents and as you can see this is not safe. I feel that it wont be long before someone falls and hurts themselves.

I am still trying to resolve the situation.
