Red-faced residents have slammed their town's "skinny beanstalk" of a Christmas tree.

Locals in Willenhall, West Mids., are furious that their festive display hasn't been decorated with tinsel or baubles and has just a string of lights dangling from a few branches.

The spindly 20ft tree was put on the Lock Worker’s Memorial by a busy junction next to an off-licence and a line of takeaways.

It was installed late last month by Walsall Council, but it appears to be lacking some Christmas sparkle.

The "pathetic" attempt at the Christmas tree has infuriated locals, who say it makes residents in the town look like scrooges.
