WHAT A WASTE
$p1 Clickety-clack, clickety-clack. Just another goods train trudging
through Morningside on our Victorian surburban line? Probably. But
it might just be carrying nuclear waste!  Environmentalists suspect that waste
from Hunterston may have already been sent through Edinburgh en route to
Windscale, when the west coast line has been blocked.  The risk of waste being
routed along the back of Cluny Gardens, under Morningside Road, and along
by Balcarres Street will certainly be much greater if Torness comes into
operation.
$p1 Experts generally concede that transport is the most vulnerable part
of the entire nuclear operation from the point of view of accident or sabotage.
What would happen if a train were derailed, or a terrorist group bought a
flat overlooking the railway and used it to launch an attack?
$p1 Remember that in 1979 members of the Freedom of Information Campaign
walked into Stratford Station in London with a full-sized replica bazooka,
approached a nuclear waste flask at a flatform, pointed the bazooka at it,
and took photos of the event.  British Rail memorably observed that the
group 'had a perfect right to be on the platform as long as they had
bought a ticket.  It was not the job of British Rail staff to apprehend
people carrying rocket launchers.' (Observer, 4 November 1979)
$p1 Will security be tighter at Morningside, and if it is what will be the
impact and inconvenience we have to suffer?

Braidburn/Fairmilehead Labour Party believes these are unnecessary risks
to impose on our community. Already Torness cannot be justified in terms
of electricity demand, and is a huge waste of taxpayers' money. Your local
Labour Party is flatly opposed to the transport of nuclear waste through
the area. Where do the local councillors and other political parties stand
on this issue? If you agree with the Labour Party on this issue why not
consider joining us.

ALNWICKHILL/KAIMES
$p1 As a District Labour Councillor for Kaimes I am in daily contact with many
people regarding their problem and queries by phone or my weekly "surgeries".
$p1 I have paricular concern for the elderly and handicapped in our area. 
Housing is a very large problem and will always get my whole attention.
$p1 Mpre and more I get queries regarding housing for the handicapped. Even though
they have top medical priority, housing suitable for wheelchairs etc is hard
to come by.
$b1 It is my intention to try and get something done about this through a notice
of motion to the Housing Committee.
$b1 Housing and maintenance seem to be the major problem facing people.
$b1 Every year around this time the problem of dampness in certain
houses starts cropping up. This of course is a city-wide problem and
difficult to tackle because of lack of finance.
$b1 I have achieved some success in getting money allocated to alleviate this
problem in many houses in our area.
$b1 To some tenants living in Orlit houses in the Burdiehouse area, namely the
Drive - Street - Terrace and Southhouse Broadway will be pleased to hear
that a re-roofing programme is to be carried out in this financial year,
(April to April).
$b1 Trees have been planted in the play area in Southhouse Broadway, the
children from Burdiehouse Primary School being involved at my instigation.
This is an attempt to improve the environment.
$b1 Gracemount High Flats Tenants' Association tried for some time to get
something done about the pram stores which were in a bad and dangerous
condition.
$b1 After they approached me to get them demolished I put in a notice of motion 
to this effect to the Housing Committee and it was agreed after listening to
me to demolish and landscape the area. This is now being done.
$b1 In conclusion as a reminder, I hold "Surgeries" 1st & 3rd Wednesdays
in Kaimes Community Centre, Burdiehouse St., 7-8pm, 2nd & 4th Wednesdays,
St. Katherine School, Gracemount Drive, 7-8pm except school holidays.
