Southfield Road anonymous leaflet

John Fareham and John Abbott are investigating the origins and contents of an anonymous circular sent to residents of Southfield Road regarding the proposal to block off access from Murrayfield Road.

We have been sent copies of this circular which did not come from us or, by the look of it, from any other political party. (If it had come from our opponents it would certainly have said which party it came from and would in all probability not have mentioned individual local residents by name.) We have therefore forwarded the circular to our highways officers with a request that they look into where it came from and how much resemblance its contents bear to the truth; we have our own theories as to its possible origins but we prefer to keep them to ourselves.
