The article titled, 100 years burnt, Week ending 4 December, refers.
Sadly, Zoo Lake, regardless of its beauty and history, is low on the priorities of a country in a general malaise inducing a total lack of law and order.
Why would a tree matter to vagrants who have no homes and no hope? The local government has done nothing to protect any monuments and nor do they care. If London had to get rid of its statues there would be nothing left to look at. It’s an attitude to the past and they do not care for it.
All fires should be banned except in a certain area. Like it or not, it should be fenced, locked at 6pm and electrified.
Nobody should be sleeping there. Perhaps a small tariff [levied] on caring parties to fund a good [security] guard or two to enforce the basic laws, even at night with one of their patrol vehicles for backup.
I used to love driving around Zoo Lake on my way to Parkview Junior. Now when I have to go that way I am shocked on a Monday by the filth.
What I am trying to say is that the people who do this to the park do not care.
