  • Planning Wars
    February 2019 February 2019 ! Free PLANNING WARS An emotive email about planning applications and how these can become divisive has been circulated by local councillor Heather Kidd. In it she states: “Waging war on individuals, making an application personal helps no one and often divides communities. Shouting at people or threatening them will achieve nothing except bad feeling and long lasting ramifications in communities. They have no effect on Planners and their decisions.” • Heather’s plea: Page 11 Return of the peregrine falcon Natural England has reported sightings of peregrine falcons around the Stiperstones over the Christmas period. The peregrine falcon has survived a government ordered cull in 1940 of some 600 birds, followed by the threat of DDT in pesticides in later years. Simon Cooter writes: “Since the ban of DDT in 1980 this remarkable bird has made an incredible recovery and is now widespread across the UK” • Simon Cooter: Page 27 Snailbeach District News - Issue 355 Page 1 February 2019 Get the latest from us online snailbeachdistrictnews.co.uk Notes from February The Editor CONTENTS I need some HELP!

  • At This Election We Risk Losing So Much of What We Value in Our Society
    At this election we risk losing so much of what we value in our society. The Green Party will stand up for what matters. A properly funded NHS, free from the threat of the profit motive. Good schools for all our children, so they can make the most of their potential without being selected by ability or restricted by a narrow regime of testing Young people should have the opportunities that my generation had – a free university education and the freedom to live, work and study abroad We welcome EU citizens and want them to stay; not have their family life and work prospects threatened. We'll give the public a vote on the terms of the Brexit deal. Protection for the environment and urgent action on climate change. The UK's commitment to the Paris climate change agreement is meaningless without action. Instead of undermining renewable energy technology and its potential to create jobs, the Green Party will invest in them. We won't subsidise fossil fuels or the white elephant that is Hinkley nuclear power station. We'll invest in public transport, walking and cycling, and scrap the major roads programme. Green Party membership and votes are growing locally and across the country. Shrewsbury has just elected its first Green member of Shropshire Council and the town council. If elected I'd support farmers and small businesses against the harmful effects of a hard Brexit; campaign against the damaging and wasteful North West Relief Road; and work to keep local public services strong and properly funded. I've lived in Shrewsbury since 2000 and my two children went to Meole Brace School and Shrewsbury Sixth Form College.
