"We just want to live in a clean street."
It doesn't sound like a lot to ask, does it? Well for residents in a part of south Liverpool this simple request means the world.
I was out in Wavertree this week, where I was confronted with scenes I have witnessed and reported on for several years now. Horrendous piles of rubbish, clutter and filth strewn across streets and pavements and clogging up revolting alleyways.
