A wrecking ball next to the words save our green belt

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. 

Save our green belt

Do you agree with us that the green belt needs to be preserved, brownfield sites prioritised, and schools, transport, and GP places guaranteed?

Security marked!

During the Kingsbrook & Cauldwell "Fortnight of Action" I took the opportunity to get my scooter marked with "Smart Water". "Smart Water" uniquely identifies your property, it's described as water with its own DNA, and it can be used on jewellery and other valuables without damaging them.

Thank The Almighty

The Barnet planning equivalent of the case of Jarndyce and Jarndyce has taken a new twist. Jarndyce and Jarndyce is the fictitious case in Charles Dickens "Bleak House", a case which had ground its way through the courts for generations.

A number of roads on the Kirkholt estate have recently been resurfaced for the first time since the Second World War. Queen Victoria Street, Kenilworth Road, Gisburn Drive, Cavendish Road and Gainsborough Drive have all been resurfaced after local Councillors secured £30,000 of funding last year.
