A fine one to talk, Mr Berman; VIEWPOINTS.I FEEL I must write about Rodney Berman's double standards ('I won't let Tesco ride roughshod Verb 1. ride roughshod - treat inconsiderately or harshly run roughshod do by, treat, handle - interact in a certain way; "Do right by her"; "Treat him with caution, please"; "Handle the press reporters gently" over traders', August 18). In the article Councillor Berman said: "The area needs more short-stay parking spaces, not less. Tesco cannot be allowed to ride roughshod to pursue a course regardless of the pain or distress it may cause others. See also: Roughshod over everyone else." Yet, when it suits Coun Berman he is prepared to ride roughshod over the residents of Rumney, Llanrumney, Trowbridge and St Mellons St Mellons (Welsh: Llaneirwg) is a district of the city of Cardiff, Wales. It is often considered to be one of the most respected villages in Cardiff, voted 2nd in the South Wales Echo top 20 towns in Wales. to build a school on Rumney Recreation Ground, as well as riding roughshod over Bute Park Alliance and others. If he wishes to solve the problem of insufficient short-stay parking spaces in the Wellfield Road area, then perhaps he should consider building a car park on Roath Park Recreation ground. He will probably receive a number of objections. But don't worry about that Mr Berman, you can ride roughshod over them. Anthony Jenkins Newport Road, Rumney, Cardiff |
