The Conservatives took many millions in donations from developers to fund their General Election campaign. Now its pay back time! 

But of course the only part of the “UK” that the British Government have direct rule over is England. So guess where all the concrete must go! 

Here is an email from the Campaign for Rural England urging action on this topic. It is very worthy and no doubt worth supporting but they don’t understand the political dimension of this threat to England! 

Only the English Democrats are seeking to solve that!

I’m sorry for this emergency email – only we’re really worried by the Planning Minister’s latest announcement that he wants to increase England’s built up area by a third.
This could equate to building over every square inch of a county the size of Devon.

We need your help to persuade the Government that this isn’t necessary – please write to your MP today.

There’s a bill that’s being debated in parliament – the Growth and Infrastructure Bill – that will allow the countryside to be damaged and erode local democracy unless we ask MPs to improve it.
We agree we need more houses – but there are already enough previously developed sites for 1.5 million new homes.

Take action: Please email your MP now asking him or her to stand up for a Growth Bill that protects the countryside

At the moment, the Growth Bill threatens to take planning powers away from councils if they don’t make decisions fast enough – this would make it easier for developers to build on green field sites.
The Bill could also allow England’s Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and National Parks to be damaged by intrusive communications paraphernalia – as well as prevent local communities from protecting their village greens from development.

Thank you very much,

Laura Jansen

Very worthy but they don’t understand the political dimension to the threat!
