General Discussion
@leatash enjoy your travels. I'm sure you're not doing this but so many times people throw statements around and when asked for the evidence to back the claim they change the subject or disappear. I have no problem being proven wrong in my opinion, I will change it but I need evidence. Sorry old-fashioned of me.
Here are some notes I made when I attended one of the public consultations about the future of the lawn: Cllr Wrigley made a point of saying that what is out for public consultation are suggestions only. What is being proposed is not a done deal. The cycle path will happen though and it will go across the lawn. The question is where? and how? across the lawn. The cyclepath is ...
I have asked both on this forum and in the local press for reasons why there should be a playpark on the lawn. I asked this because whilst I am genuinely open to persuasion I have yet to hear an argument that will convince me.

" after we leave the EU" can you point me to the EU directive that states the immigration from non-EU countries policy? " speak good English"? We could probably expel a load of English people using this rule too
I'm sick and tired of hearing about this bloody playpark. I am against it period!!! At one time I might have agreed that a playpark maybe, just maybe might a good idea. However I believe all these so-called public consultations are smoke and mirror's by the council. I believe the council will do whatever they want.
