Potholes


This is what happens when council budgets are slashed by an ideological government who don’t like the thought of spending on its facilities but would rather give tax breaks to donors.

I hit one the other day and genuinely thought I’d fucked the axle of the car.
 
Same here. There have been a couple of shocking ones that people on the local facebooks have had to warn everyone else about and sounds like literally dozens of wheels have been knacked.
 
A piece on breakfast news this past week suggests it’s a nightmare everywhere.

Thankfully the worst road for them round mine has just been sorted. Proper resurfacing as well not just filling the holes.
 
Report it online on your local council website if you can.

Waste of time, they haven't got the resources to repair them. If they do, sometimes takes years, even then usually a cheap and nasty job. Fookin Third world country parts of the North East.
The scourge of the motorist, f***ing speed bumps and potholes….hate them.

Scourge of the pedestrian also, try walking home from Horden station on a dark winters night, no streetlights, switched off by council to save money, footpath full of potholes and disintegrating. Tory b*stards.
