Wax Wrote:I too think the situation is appalling and Councillor Melton is way out of order, but I am wondering why the Councillor thinks this way is he just another big bad developer who has been primed by central Government to put a shot across the bows of " conservationists " or is there much less to it than that. Whatever response is put forward it must not be a knee jerk reaction it must be well thoughtout and argued and not primed to get the backs up of the developers and local councillors (much as some of them might be derserving of it). A united front is great but rising to an obvious bait is a sure way of getting caught.
Very true Wax. While reading some of the initial responses, this seems to be the case; a cautious response. To be a player, you have to be involved.
A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.
