  I'm not sure what price one can put on a human life. I would hate to think that a 'removed barrier' could have saved a child or aged persons life. If it isreally down to funding surely the barriers should only be removed when it's no longer cost effective to repair not simply go on a mass tearing up of barriers some of which are still sound and safe.
  
  This country is shot to pieces... we send millions to feed the poor help the blind tend the sick in India meanwhile the Indian Govt spend billions blowing up satellites in the vain attempt to enter the space race. Bloody crazy.
  
  Meanwhile BarryW's argument of cotton wool society doesn't wash cos who would be the first agency to call in the event of his house being burgled...the Police...but why bother he is insured and his goods would in due course be replaced and the cops would probably be better served informing the family of a pedestrian killed by an errant driver who had mounted the pavement where once a barrier stood as a first line of protection.
