Time running out to make your views known

Hounslow Council's petition to ban spitting only has a few days to run- it finishes on December 18th -but there is still time to make your views known.

The petition is available online at www.hounslow.gov.uk/spitting and in paper form in all borough libraries, and at the Civic Centre, Lampton Road, Hounslow.

Well over 3,000 residents have signed the petition to stamp out the habit. The petition was launched in September.

The petition followed a council motion proposing a ban on spitting which received cross party support earlier this year. In order to introduce a ban, the council needs to demonstrate public support for a by-law.
