Concerned Citizen

They're asking questions that should have been asked a year ago. I felt able to share my views.

They knew they wouldn't reopen it quickly last September. This process should have started a year ago. So then when we get the first survey report mid-November, they would be able to hack the ground running.

We've got to wait until mid-next year before we get anywhere, and it'll be years before anything happens.

I want to have a live performance space, so a theatre where you can have live shows, professional and amateur, live music, the panto in Redhill. Now whether it is in the current structure, I don't know, but that is what we need here.

I can't stress how important something like that is. A live performance space, whether it's heavy metal music, which is not something I would ever go and see. Some people want to go and see that. And it just covers every genre of music, drama, comedy. Yes, that's what we want. And it's for amateurs as well as professionals. It's always been a poor thing.

So finally, what's your message to the council? Get on and start doing something.

The changes that this government is trying to impose have a great deal of pain for a lot of people.
