Default Outrage as council bans apostrophes on street signs

After careful consideration, the council is axing the punctuation mark, citing its potential to disrupt geographical databases. It stated that all new street signs would be made without an apostrophe, regardless of whether they were used in the past. Some locals voiced concerns about axing the apostrophes, warning it could lead to "everything going downhill" it "being the thin end of the wedge" and send the country to the dogs." They called on the authorities to keep them.
