No, it's due to ignorance and stupidity! Redteds right, a letter to someone higher up and it might be a good idea to get your doctor to sign it as well.

That's awful! I presume it's vandalism so why are the police not doing something about it? Certainly not good for anyone with lung problems to be living in these conditions. Hope something's done soon to stop it!

Try ringing the fire brigade, none emergency. My brother was burning rubbish in his garden and they turned up and put it out. lol.

It beggars belief! Where do these people come from? Just hope the fires stop for your sake xx

Not everyone will understand what being on oxygen means. A letter from GP to someone higher up the council chain, and copied to your MP might do the trick.

This is something that was said to my husband yrs ago when we rang. The last time they said we cannt stop people burning rubbish and then put the phone down.We are always saying burning again considering this is a smokeless zone its disgusting .

think the problem is they just cant be bothered . I kicked of at our housing association after I put a new fence up the neighbour kept lighting fires every sunday afternoon in a oil drum about 3 foot from fence smoke every were had to close windows in the house on hot afternoons housing officer told me cant really do any thing I asked if they was going to pay for new fence when it caught fire and seeing as fence joined part of house they would have to put that right too they soon went and see them and fires stopped ,
