Shepherd's Bush Fair: where is the clear up?

Fat Profits, dirty pathsShepherd's Bush Fair, which has just earned H&F Council a great deal of money, is packing up and leaving. I and other readers commenting predicted what the state of the Green would look like and below you can see for yourself.

After the last Fair H&F Council did absolutely nothing to clear up either the state of the litter or the state of the Green which was left churned up and resembling a battleground for months. I noticed an immediate and prolonged increase in the number of rats I saw and I have already seen more than I usually do every morning, its not difficult to see why from these images.

So H&F Council, a large number of whose employees read this blog, what are the plans to clean it up? You could buy a lot of propaganda signs for the cost of a clean Green...[gallery]

  5. Dangerous vehicles ply Shepherd’s Bush Fair « Shepherd’s Bush10 January 2010 at 09:40

    [...] January 10, 2010 by chrisunderwood The last great diesel belching lorries and caravans were trundling off the Green this week-end, churning even the permafrosted ground as they went, having been a nice little earner for the Council but not exciting much interest from the hard-to-please locals of the Bush. In my several posts on this fair, this year and last, I’ve asked questions about the clear-up operation that never seems to follow after this fair – just look here. [...]
