'People shouldn’t be defacing road markings' - Your Letters: August 29
PICTURE FROM THE ARCHIVE: A picture taken from the Express & Star archives, dated December 2016. Holding a pint of Dark Ruby Mild, the recently named West Midlands Championship Beer of the Year, was proud operations manager Simon Massey, of Kinver, at the Sarah Hughes Brewery, Sedgley.
RED PAINT IS NOT THE RIGHT WAY
As someone who was born here in the UK and has been going to work since the age of 16, I can understand the anger people from similar backgrounds have towards the current state of this country and the world.
The painted on roundabouts and road markings in this country are a marvellous invention that facilitate safe travel and transport whether you’re on a bus or in a car.
Yet recently people insist on going around with red paint marking the markings with a cross in an act of frustrated patriotism.
I can fully understand why - but people shouldn’t be defacing the road markings, thus holding up everyone’s essential journeys to work, to school, to the shops, etc. because we all need to be somewhere!
