Re: "Hertford & Ware" Mercury
Surprise, surprise, this week's 'Hertford and Ware' Mercury is once again ignoring Hertford and Ware. Front page is a large and unimaginative picture of election candidates (yawn) followed on the next few pages by stories from Cheshunt, Waltham Cross and the ESSEX town of Waltham Abbey. Pathetic.

Re: "Hertford & Ware" Mercury
On the basis of the figures posted by Sniffer Dog, isn't the Mercury in danger of breaching trading standards laws as it clearly states on the front page of the "local" edition that it is for "Hertford, Ware and the surrounding areas"? And as it is now no longer fit for purpose, aren't people who fo...

Re: "Hertford & Ware" Mercury
Front page story on this week's 'Hertford and Ware' Mercury (April 4) is from Hoddesdon! If Mercury reporters are unable to find a story from Hertford or Ware that is worthy of a place on the front page of the 'local' edition then perhaps they should consider whether they are in the right job.

Re: "Hertford & Ware" Mercury
Flicked through a copy while in Sainsburys and noticed that hardly any estate agents are advertising with them so it seems that it is not only readers who have given up on it. I cannot believe those businesses who still advertise in the Mercury feel they are getting value for money.

Re: "Hertford & Ware" Mercury
Totally agree Steve. I paid £1 for this and I felt cheated. If I wanted news about Cheshunt, Waltham Cross or Waltham Abbey (which isn't even in Herts) I would have bought that edition. It's like buying a box of Cornflakes and finding Rice Krispies inside. Perhaps trading standards should investigat...
