[Margaret Pilkington]

I have not said you were a mindless politician....and I haven't seen anyone else say that either.
I am sorry that you feel that my responses to you are mired in negativity.
It just so happens that I don't agree with your view of the development...so of course you are going to term it as 'negative'.
Positive would be if someone actually listened to the concerns being expressed and saw them for what they are...and that is, valid and genuine concern.
Concern for businesses who are having a hard time of it anyway. Concern for the elderly and the infirm who actually use the transport system.......but no, it appears that these concerns can be swept away with the dig that we are standing in the way of progess...or harking back to the old days...the days when the town was seen as being better(probably because it was).

If you go it will be sad...but it is your choice.
