Fly Posters
Read more at the Sunderland EchoAngry councillors want the city council to take action on fly-posters, rather than letting people off for first offences – just weeks after a get-tough policy was introduced. At least eight posters advertising the Cool for Cats disco at the Independent on Holmeside have been posted on council and BT property across Herrington, Doxford Park and Barnes. Council officials say the perpetrators will not be prosecuted as it is a first offence, but Conservative members Robert Oliver and Michael Dixon are calling for a clear message to be sent out to all flyposters who are messing up Wearside's streets.
