1. I am glad the “More than 20 members of the pubic” are so happy

2. McDonald’s will appeal to the Planning Inspectorate and Walsall Council will be paying their costs.

3. In terms of health data, especially children, Walsall are one of the worst with almost 1 in 2 children classed as overweight

4. Looking at the picture a very elderly, very vocally NIMBY minority of the population cheer.

   This is a big part of why there is no growth in the UK economy.

5. Putting it on a 6 junction roundabout, which is a major link between the city to places like Walsall, Sutton Coldfield, Aldridge and South Staffs is mad. It will cause chaos, Queslett Rd already suffering from this during peak times. Maybe people should just travel the 1.8 mile journey to the other closest McDonald’s and earn their burger

6. Took me a while before I realised Walsall McDonald isn’t the name of person who had planning permission refused
