WHAT ON earth is happening to Newport are we ruled by the lunatic fringe or what?

They’ve decimated the town centre lost all the shops and committed a terrible act of vandalism by destroying the Chartist mural which was something we should all be proud of.

A fantastic piece of art glorying in our city’s past history, all for a new shopping centre which as far as I can recall has been promised for the last ten years or more.

Also has anyone yet seen what’s happening to the buses whilst this centre is being built?

Go into the bus station office and ask you will be amazed at the plan. Also what’s happening to the taxis no one seems to know, and how long will this disruption last.

Don’t worry about it when all else fails they will remodel the market once again and mess up the traffic system yet again.
