Out of interest why?I filmed poorly made videos and uploaded them to YouTube instead of getting a proper job!
I grew up in one of the 5 areas, it is probably in a better state now than it was in the late 90s into the 00s.
Parts of Coventry do look very shabby now, the litter is just disgusting.
Yes, same with me. I'm all for the most Draconian punishment for either crime.As bad as it is Brum is another level.
I get a bit Daily Mail reader where litter and fly tipping are concerned.
You're not that bad a neighbour, surely?Murder/husband topped himself next door a month ago!

Why isn't Finham on that list?
It's a godforsaken place!
I grew up in Lowther Street.I grew up near to Highfield Road and lived in the flats where the Mercers was about 10 years ago, I don't know if it's just being away but that area looks far shabbier than I remember it and it was a relatively low base to begin with.
Probably the direction funnels the wind and the tall buildings magnify it.why is it always windy in riley square?
it's fucking weird.
It definitely does, I walked from Wyken into town over the Christmas period and couldn't believe itI grew up near to Highfield Road and lived in the flats where the Mercers was about 10 years ago, I don't know if it's just being away but that area looks far shabbier than I remember it and it was a relatively low base to begin with.
Twice a year in the Village I live in there is a big "clean up" morning... loads of residents take part (including me).Wish I'd not watched that. The area is the area, but the worst part as others have alluded to is the littering. No respect. it's disgusting. Literally sitting on your own doorstep.
The problem is compounded by seeing a mess so others think why should I bother and add to it. Would be nice to see prominent people from the city, possibly even the club too, getting involved in a cleaning up initiative. Choose an area at a time and all hands to the deck, residents from the area all involved, and helping until it's spotless. Would be nice if it was then maintained and cared for, perhaps.
Maybe we need some sort of government led initiative that forces young people to do voluntary work like clearing litter...Wish I'd not watched that.

Tbf that's part of the problem I think. I'm not excusing people, but if the council collected them without profit there would be less fly tipping that they them have to deal with anway. A lot of households can't afford £40 so just dump it for free. I know some would regardless, but make it a tenner and I'm sure it would reduce.Not sure if you can put it down as littering when you get mattresses, fridges, washing machines etc on the pavement come morning when until recently 3 large items collected by the council for £25 now £40! It's the people.
