South Wales Evening Post - 11 March 2006
It may be stating the obvious - but there are times when it just has to be said. Plans to regenerate the centre of Swansea have been labelled shambolic by the city's civic society.
The society takes a hefty swipe at council leaders and says efforts to breathe new life into the centre are being thwarted by "lack of organisation and common sense".
Strong words - but council leader Chris Holley has countered with a robust defence of current city redevelopment plans.
The trouble is many won't believe redevelopment and regeneration is taking place until the guys with builders' hats move in.
And who can blame them?
