Sir – The residents of Minster Lovell are continuing to suffer severe difficulties due to the withdrawal of the Stagecoach bus service S2.

Stagecoach is not taking the residents’ concerns seriously.

They failed to adequately consult the residents and then sent a representative to meetings who is unable to provide information or answers to our questions.

The parish council is doing its best to help the residents of Minster Lovell.

The county council is doing its utmost to ignore the situation. They could not be bothered to send anyone to a recent meeting that the parish council had organised.

The leader of the county council and the cabinet member who is responsible for transport issues have both shown no interest in our problem.

To date we have not been able to get any help from the county council.

The county council member for our area is elusive.

When you ring her published telephone number, it is unobtainable.

She does not respond to messages left for her, or emails or letters.

I know she exists, as she did make a rare attendance at the July parish council meeting when this matter was discussed, so she is fully aware of the problem.

At this meeting she promised her full support, but to date she has been conspicuous by her absence.

What will it take to get our elected representatives to assist us in resolving this matter?
