LETTERS – Stop new gaming centre

In response to W Kirk (August 12), has South Holland District Council gone completely mad regarding the proposed adult gaming centre in Dorothy Perkins’ shop for Merkur Slots?

Can’t they see the trouble it will cause? There is a public house nearby – are they blind?

Spalding is nothing but an eyesore come rubbish dump now.

If this gaming centre is not stopped, there will be real trouble, especially at night.

I say now – everyone stop this madness now, we do not want this.

Stop this Merkur Slots gaming centre now.

Mrs M Burman
Spalding
