EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, the frustration and anger of tenants waiting for repairs to their homes is palpable. The council's controversial decision to allocate nearly £3000 towards cleaning up condemned flats has left these residents seething with resentment. Their dilapidated maisonettes in Roughsedge Hey, Cantril Farm, stand as a stark reminder of the poverty and neglect that plagues their community. What makes matters worse is that this costly sprucing up effort was undertaken solely to impress a visiting royal dignitary - the Duke of Gloucester. As he prepares for his visit today, these tenants can't help but feel disregarded and overlooked by those in power. This snapshot from 4th February 1981 captures not only the physical decay of tower blocks in Merseyside but also highlights the social inequality prevalent during this era. It serves as a poignant reminder of how some communities were neglected while others received preferential treatment. The image evokes strong emotions as we witness individuals grappling with their living conditions while witnessing resources being diverted elsewhere for superficial reasons. This photograph stands as a testament to the resilience and determination of those who endure hardships caused by inadequate housing policies. As we reflect on this moment frozen in time, it prompts us to question societal priorities and advocate for fair treatment and equal opportunities for all citizens, regardless of their socio-economic background or proximity to influential visitors.
