John Green to Public Service Ombudsman Watchers (18th June 2008)
My parents have been verbally attacked by a member of Wrexham Borough Council simply because they burnt a very small amount of paper in their back garden. They own their own home.
To terrorise a man and woman in their 80's over a small amount of burning paper is utterly obscene! My father has a bad heart and is recovering from cancer for God sake.
What sort of cowards are working at Wrexham Borough Council? What gives them the right to march on to land and threaten elderly, sick people? By all means inform people that they are contravening some local by-law and leave but for these servants of the state to shout and make demands is utterly uncalled for.
