I WROTE to MP Harry Cohen in November regarding the problems in the Wanstead area, especially as I had my car stolen from my drive, after thieves kicked in the doors to get the spare keys.
Only after this happened to me and speaking to different people, did I realise just how bad the crime in Wanstead and the surrounding areas was.
His reply was to pass it over to the police for their comments. They contacted me in turn, but this was not the reply I wanted.
I want to know what the Government is going to do about crime, asylum seekers transport etc. Let's stop talking about war and address the issues in this country not Iraq, let the Americans deal with that, whilst Mr Blair spends the money he would spend on war on getting this country back on its feet.
