It is short sighted to lose our countryside for houses for people who could move to an area whose population is falling. 132 local authorities’ had fewer people this year than last. Vacant properties should be used before the fields are lost forever.

Stop being NIMBY’s. The farmers make little to no money from their land, the ‘locals’ are only interested in protecting their house prices and views and the vast vast majority of normal people WANT developments like this as they offer a way for us mere mortals (who didn’t grow up/live in booming house prices when you brought for 20k and sold for 200k!!) to buy a nice place to live. We don’t want little blocks of housing on your tiny brown sites. We want to be near the outskirts to you know! You are just being very selfish and very short sighted.
Think about the majority and not the minority.. The best thing for the local economy, sports clubs, social clubs is for these to ALL be built as quickly as possible and setting up local facilities for these people to use and get them part of the town.
I read your sites purely because I can’t believe how short sighted and arrogant you are over things like this ‘keep our farm land’… No.. farmers don’t want to keep it!! It’s hard work for very little reward!
