Just when residents thought Gateshead Council no longer had a sense of humour they come up with this clever ploy to support their demolition efforts. In the middle of a street of boarded up houses, a problem created by Gateshead Council, they have a huge poster. It reads "creating a new community for new friendships".
Just a few metres from this post is a a family with young children living in terror from the building site around them. The poster is an ironic reminder of the community that used to exist before Gateshead Council were offered millions of pounds for demolition and the prospect of making millions more by selling to property developers.
If the poster was meant to be a serious declaration of policy it falls far short of reality so it can only be assumed to be one officers view of black humour.
