Save our green belt
The Government has doubled the housebuilding target for Stockport, weakened the protections on a third of our precious green belt, and is forcing the Council through Ministerial Directives and threats to adopt a Local Plan which will let developers target green belt first.
We oppose this government’s ‘developers charter’ and need your voice. Do you agree with us that the green spaces that make our area special need to be preserved, and new housing should first be built on brownfield sites, after the infrastructure is provided with schools, improved transport, and GP places guaranteed? Help us send a message to Government and make Labour listen to local people.
Find our more about the local plan on our frequently asked questions page.

Liberal Democrat Defra Spokesperson Tim Farron has accused the Government of being complacent in its handling of the UK's bluetongue crisis after it was revealed that millions of doses of vaccine could be thrown away. This means that the number of animals that have been immunised is much lower than the government's targets - leaving the door open to dangerous outbreaks this summer.

DIANA SMITH: "It's Time To Stop The Waste!"
It's time to stop the waste of poorly managed projects, from waste on the roads like the ludicrously delayed pedestrian crossings in Knaphill and short-term patches on potholes that wear out long before the roads are mended properly, to the millions of pounds squandered through the last-minute failure to bring County Hall to Woking.
