Andrew Gwynne MP Councillor George Newton Councillor Claire Reid Councillor Jack Naylor Labour's Elected Representatives in Denton South, Tameside Andrew Gwynne MP Councillor George Newton Councillor Claire Reid Councillor Jack Naylor Labour's elected representatives in Denton South, Tameside. Team Denton South Wednesday 30 September 2020 via email Dear Elise, RE: Invitation to Haughton Dale Local Nature Reserve in the Tame Valley We are writing to you as the Elected Representatives for the Denton South ward which, in case you are not aware shares a border with Stockport MBC and indeed the Bredbury and Woodley ward. We are writing to invite you to visit, at your earliest convenience, the area where the Tame Valley crosses the border from Tameside to Stockport, as we would like to be confident you appreciate the natural beauty of this part of the Greater Manchester greenbelt, as at the moment we are not sure this is the case. We are sure like us you do always try to do your absolute best for your community, and for us a large part of that includes protecting the health and wellbeing of all the residents as well as the environment. That is why for some time we have led the campaign to oppose the planning application to extend Bredbury Industrial Estate, and we have received intensive and abundant support from our community, and the Stockport community, in this objective. Extending the Bredbury Industrial Estate in the way that is outlined in the recent planning application would destroy a large portion of our very precious Tame Valley, a resource that is enjoyed by thousands of residents from Tameside, Stockport and further afield every year. We as the elected representatives simply cannot see how this is justifiable, quite frankly it is environmental destruction. At present, Stockport’s proposals for the Greater Manchester Spatial Framework not only do not add any protections to this precious area of greenbelt, but take the horrifying approach to remove it from the greenbelt completely eliminating any protections. Stockport’s approach of wishing to use the GMSF to declassify this very important section of green open space as greenbelt and redesignate it as industrial land is all but guaranteeing the developer will have their planning application, which seeks to bulldoze the countryside, approved. Currently in planning law the presumption would be to refuse a planning application of this nature on this site. The changes to the land designation being brought forward in the GMSF under YOUR leadership would mean the presumption in planning law would be to approve this kind of planning application and enabling the destruction of our precious Tame Valley. Stockport’s own Local Plan does not currently permit any development in this area, and the Core Strategy actually goes further with regards to employment and states the Borough does not require any more employment land. You are able to view this assertion at point 3.238. Referring in more detail to your Adopted Plan and the policies that still apply from the former UDP, you will understand the importance of point 2.8: Landscape Character Areas (LCAs) where: screening unsightly existing development, by making waterside areas more attractive or through additional landscaping. These waterside areas are listed as: A. Woodford B. Heald Green Fringe C. Ladybrook Valley D. River Mersey E. Tame Valley F. Brinnington East G. Goyt Valley H. Offerton/Poise Brook I. Hazel Grove/High Lane J. Mellor Moor K. Marple Bridge L. Ludworth Moor M. Etherow Parklands Why then would Stockport feel it is in keeping with the Local Plan to introduce unsightly development to the Tame Valley? I doubt yourself or other Members of Stockport Council would tolerate the enabling of this kind of development in any other of these areas listed above, so why is the beautiful Tame Valley being subjected to it? We can only imagine it is because it would in fact be Tameside which will bear the brunt and not Stockport. This is hardly maintaining a neighbourly approach to development, and we would go further to say it is holding Tameside in complete contempt. To add insult to injury 2.9 of the same document states ‘where development is permissible under other policies of the plan it should be carried out in such a way as to make a positive contribution to the surrounding landscape’. Not only are you removing precious greenbelt you are enabling development which couldn’t be further from a positive contribution. Furthermore when turning to LCR1.1a THE URBAN FRINGE INCLUDING THE RIVER VALLEYS it is very clear ‘proposals for development in the urban fringe should protect, conserve and improve the landscape quality and natural history of the locality, and encourage the development of a variety of attractive landscape types’. We also cannot understand why you as Leader of Stockport Council would wish to pursue a development that does not act in accordance with the following policies: 2.23 RIVER VALLEYS - Since the 1970s the Council, in co-operation with other agencies, has pursued an integrated approach to environmental protection and recreational provision in the Borough’s four river valleys (the Mersey, *Tame, Etherow/Goyt and Ladybrook). The Council recognises the distinctive history of the valley areas and the importance of a co-ordinated and consistent approach. 2.24 The river valleys are considered in the context of the objectives of Stockport's Action plan for Nature, 2000. This sets out The Biodiversity Action Plan for Stockport, which contains a series of Habitat Action Plans and action plans for key species that are of conservation importance in the Borough. The 'Water courses Habitat Statement' is of particular relevance. The Greater Manchester Biodiversity Action Plan provides a county, regional and national context. If Stockport’s own core policies, put together with public involvement through the democratic process, are very clear on these issues why then is Stockport MBC pursuing a redesignation of this land that completely goes against these policies? It is simply unfathomable. Here in Denton, and Tameside, we always strive for a neighbourly approach, not least to protect the prized River Valleys through the spirit and the letter of the planning policies of the Joint Tame Valley Committee so we are able to preserve this precious gift bestowed by Greater Manchester Council all those years ago. Sadly, Stockport’s current ambitions do not honour these high standards. We therefore very much hope Stockport will reverse their current position and join Tameside in protecting all of our River Valleys for generations to come. We can only imagine that you as Leader do not have an adequate understanding of the site and the destruction this development will have to our shared border and beautiful countryside. That is why we would like to invite you to the area so you can see for yourself the abhorrent nature of what the developer, and indeed Stockport’s proposal for the GMSF, is proposing for our area. We are sure as the Leader of Stockport Council you are aware that Denton already has some of the worst air quality in the Greater Manchester area. It is a fact that some of this is as a result of the wagons and HGVs that already chug down the A6017 to access the existing Bredbury Industrial Estate as a consequence of the low bridge at Bredbury, an issue Stockport Council refuse to do anything about, and we can simply not allow the air our children breathe to become more polluted on account of Stockport’s greed for an egregious and unnecessarily large industrial estate. We ask you to think again, to put the future of our boroughs first, and to protect our precious greenbelt for generations to come. Please do take us up on our invitation to visit the site and assess the devastating impact Stockport Council’s enabling of a developer to bulldoze our countryside would have on our precious Tame Valley, and do not let greenbelt destruction become your legacy as Leader of Stockport Council. Yours sincerely, Andrew Gwynne MP Councillor George Newton Councillor Claire Reid Councillor Jack Naylor cc - All Stockport Councillors Chief Executive of Stockport Council William Wragg MP Navendu Mishra MP Mary Robinson MP Andy Burnham, Mayor of Greater Manchester Leader of Tameside Council Chief Executive of Tameside Council Chief Executive of the Greater Manchester Combined Authority Diane Coffey & Amanda Millward, Save Woodley Greenbelt Group .

    The Rt Hon Boris Johnson MP 30 January 2020 Prime Minister 10 Downing Street London SW1A 2AA Dear Prime Minister, We are writing to you as a group of cross-party parliamentarians to express our grave concern over the contents of US President Donald Trump’s so-called ‘peace plan’ for Israel and the Palestinians. The plan presented on 28 January shows contempt for the rights of the Palestinian people and international law, and provides no realistic basis for a return to negotiations. Instead, it makes peace less likely, and threatens to undermine a fundamental principle of the post-WWII international legal order: the prohibition of annexation and territorial conquest. The long-standing position of the UK is that a negotiated peace settlement must be agreed to achieve a two-state solution based on the 1967 borders, leading to a safe and secure Israel living alongside a viable and sovereign Palestinian state that has secure and recognised borders, and with Jerusalem as a shared capital of both states. The vision presented by the US administration is one where Palestinians would have none of these: no true shared capital in Jerusalem, no sovereign control of its borders or security, and with Israeli control far beyond the Green Line. As a group of 16 UK charities warned this week: “if implemented [the plan] will lead to the formal annexation of Palestinian land, perpetual Israeli occupation, and the negation of Palestinians’ collective right to self-determination.” It is a plan that the Palestinians have no choice but to reject if they wish to maintain their fundamental rights, but that they will be punished for not accepting.

  • NEW SHADOW CABINET 2020 Who’S In, Who’S Out?
    NEW SHADOW CABINET 2020 Who’s In, Who’s Out? BRIEFING PAPER blackcountrychamber.co.uk Who’s in and Who’s out? Sir Keir Starmer, newly elected Leader of the UK Labour Party, set about building his first Shadow Cabinet, following his election win in the Labour Party leadership contest. In our parliamentary system, a cabinet reshuffle or shuffle is an informal term for an event that occurs when the head of a government or party rotates or changes the composition of ministers in their cabinet. The Shadow Cabinet is a function of the Westminster system consisting of a senior group of opposition spokespeople. It is the Shadow Cabinet’s responsibility to scrutinise the policies and actions of the government, as well as to offer alternative policies.

  • The Rt Hon Matt Hancock MP Secretary of State for Health And
    The Rt Hon Matt Hancock MP Secretary of State for Health and Social Care Department of Health and Social Care Ministerial Correspondence and Public Enquiries Unit 39 Victoria Street London SW1H 0EU 13 March 2020 Dear Secretary of State, Coronavirus and the social care workforce We are writing as cross-party Parliamentarians concerned about the urgent need to provide support to the social care sector in the context of the Covid-19 pandemic. The social care sector plays a crucial role in supporting hundreds of thousands of vulnerable people in high-risk groups for Covid-19. There is a need to ensure both that there are strong protocols in place to keep vulnerable residents safe, and also to ensure continuity of care in the event that a significant proportion of the social care workforce has to take time off during the pandemic. We welcome the Chancellor’s commitment to provide local government with immediate financial support to protect adult social care services dealing with Covid-19 outbreaks, and the commitment that workers who self-isolate will be eligible for statutory sick pay from day one. We also welcome the guidance from NHS England advising NHS Trusts to: ‘Ensure that any member of staff, including bank staff and sub-contractors, who has to be physically present at an NHS facility to carry out their duties, receives full pay for any period in which they are required to self- isolate as a result of public health advice’. However, we are concerned that these actions will not protect the quarter of the social care workforce who are currently employed on zero-hours contracts, and that the drop in income which will result from receiving SSP may act as a disincentive to some social care workers to self- isolate, putting vulnerable people at risk.

    Douglas Oakervee Independent Chair, Oakervee Review Department for Transport Albany House 94-98 Petty France London SW1H 9EA Dear Douglas Oakervee Review Submission from Greater Manchester Parliamentarians As members of the Greater Manchester All Party Parliamentary Group (GM APPG) we wanted to welcome your review on the future of HS2 and to ensure that the collective views of Greater Manchester Parliamentarians are considered and taken on board. Greater Manchester MPs of all parties work collaboratively to provide a strong voice for the city- region in Westminster, working alongside the Mayor and local business and political leaders to help maximise future investment and growth for the benefit of the communities throughout Greater Manchester. We want to emphasise the following key points: After decades of underinvestment in strategic rail infrastructure and transport in the North, HS2 and Northern Powerhouse Rail, if combined with a clear commitment to much needed investment in our intra city transport networks, will provide the basis for a once-in-a-generation programme to secure the levels of investment and productivity in our northern cities that is essential to transform the North’s economic output and the life chances of residents here. Given the scale of the challenge to rebalance and level-up the UK, the GMAPPG strongly believes that choices cannot be made between HS2 and Northern Powerhouse Rail. Only by delivering the two initiatives together, as a future strategic rail network can we achieve the transformational economic outcomes that we share with Government. In making our case we would urge your team to consider the following points: • The full and timely delivery of Northern Powerhouse Rail (NPR) and HS2 Phase 2b is central to Greater Manchester’s wider ambitions for the role of rail in city-region growth.
