An MP is launching a petition to keep toilet facilities open in a town centre after a council announced plans to close them. Lorely Burt, Liberal Democrat MP for Solihull, said it is a basic civic duty to provide decent, clean toilets in town centres, shops and parks.
Last week Solihull Council said it wants to close all six public toilets to save �7m.
Shoppers would have to use facilities pubs and libraries instead.
Ms Burt said it is short-sighted of the council to close the toilets to save less than 1% of its budget.
