Middle class idiots? - vulpes - 21st January 2011 hmmm, that sounds almost like a statistical conundrum to me. Not sure which half I fall in! Middle class idiots? - deadlylampshade - 21st January 2011 We aren't a democracy...we're an oligarchy (even with the CONDEM alliance) Steven - very good post and no whiff of Sir Humphrey at all.

Any IfA comment? Middle class idiots? - Redben - 23rd January 2011 Private Eye picked up on possible/probable changes to planning regulation in their current issue. Haven't got the exact details to hand but it had something to do with not allowing newts to stand in the way of building. As most contractors seem to care more about not getting fined for animal welfare issues such as newts, badgers and dormice than about archaeology, it isn't hard to imagine that archaeology is going to come off badly in any future review.xx( Middle class idiots? - Winders - 25th January 2011 The Institute of Historic Building Conservation has flagged this one and I imagine that ALGAO are also lobbying strongly about it behind the scenes: http://ihbconline.co.uk/newsachive/?p=2258 Basically, Listed Building and Conservation Area legislation can be ignored by the neighbourhood planning provisions within the Localism Bill. One also assumes of course that provisions in PPS5 covering archaeology are also ignored. Hopefully it's just the DCMS forgetting to get involved and it'll be sorted out before the Bill is finalised. Now go lobby yer MP... Middle class idiots? - troll - 25th January 2011 A clear material breach of the Valetta convention then. Middle class idiots? - Jack - 2nd February 2011 I've raised this on the digital democracy... http://www.digitaldemocracy.org.uk/ That has re-launched nationally after its local trial. If everyone registers and votes for my proposal it will be passed onto the MP's democracy in action! Middle class idiots? - kevin wooldridge - 2nd February 2011 I too have added my tuppence worth to the debate on this site. I look forward to my MP getting in touch with me soon...... Middle class idiots? - Jack - 2nd February 2011 Thanks Kevin..........the more noise that is made the better. But I don't hold out much hope unless someone 'important enough' champions our cause |
