News in brief
• A hearty pat on the back goes to Alun Michael, MP for Cardiff South & Penarth, for courageously standing up to the bullying tactics of hunters and getting the ban on hunting wild animals with dogs through Parliament. Well done!
• Alun Michael MP is also thanked for giving assistance to the St. Mellons Community Creche in its recent lease negotiations with Tescos.
• The Trowbridge & St. Mellons Labour Party extends a warm welcome to Inspector Alex Chadd the new Police Inspector for St. Mellons, based at Rumney Police Station. He recently joined Councillor Ralph Cook on a tour of the Ward to obtain a "Councillor’s eye-view" of the area.
• We applaud the efforts of the local police in securing an Anti-Social Behaviour Order against a young man with a history of unacceptable activity in the area. We hope the man in question will comply with the Order improve his behaviour - because prison is no picnic!
• Following the attack on a twelve-year-old St. Mellons school girl in September by a "stray" horse, local Councillor Ralph Cook has asked the Council and Police to consider imposing Anti-Social Behaviour Orders on the main horse-owners. They would then be risking imprisonment if they continued to dump their horses in residential areas.
• Councillor Monica Walsh has been busy getting the Council to cut back over-grown vegetation along the western stretches of Willowbrook Drive.
