after two workmen were caught on camera emptying a truckload of stagnant flood water outside their homes.
Karen Carberry, 45, has lived in the street for four years and told the Glasgow Times what had gone on was a 'disgrace'.She added: “It’s unacceptable and I’d like to know how those in charge at the City Chambers would feel if vile water was poured all over the area outside their homes. The water is filthy, completely brown. Goodness knows what could be floating in it.
“It’s just not on, our street was effectively used as a dumping ground. Young children play there and people use the area as a walkway to the canal. I’m appalled by the whole thing. I hope this doesn’t happen again; lessons need to be learned.” He added: “Would the staff or the people who sanctioned this do it outside their own homes? It shows complete contempt.
