Dear Editor,
I’m wondering why there have been no reports from Syston Town Council in Syston Town News in the last couple of months.
The Spotlight articles have always been most informative, and a useful way to keep in touch with what is going on.
Have the council stopped sharing information with the public?
I know we might look online, but not everyone has the facility for this, and it’s very useful to see the reports in print.

Dear Editor,
I have recently found out that Syston has no plans to celebrate our Queen’s Platinum Jubilee.
How disgraceful when other villages, Towns and even the City are planning events, plus taking part in the big lunch event on a park and inviting their residents to join together to mark this once in a life time event. After the two year we have all had it was the least the council should have done.
Does Syston Town Council have no respect for our monarch of 70 years?
They appear to just attend meetings, talk and make punitive gestures like planting a tree and placing a bench outside the council office when there is already a seat outside the building. Why could it not have been placed somewhere more useful, for example on Melton Road near the shops, for people to sit and rest a while.
Perhaps its time we had some new, proactive community minded people on Syston Town Council who would go out of their way to bring our town together after the terrible two years we have all had to endure.
Shame on you all!
A Syston Resident.
