| Nothing that has been said on this thread about Adam Beamish has been spiteful. He may have been prompted to flounce of after I wrote - 'I would say that such views are stupid, just dangerous' which was a typo with a missing negative. If he didn't spot this and was offended I apologise and would make it clear it would never be my intention to describe him as stupid. That his views are dangerous, however, I would stand by. Adam has articulated his views about the involvement of the general public in planning issues several times before on this forum. Whilst I don't question the integrity of Adam, local planning officers or the Councillors we have had enough examples of how the planning system can be corrupted if it is not subject to democratic scrutiny. Just read Nooks and Corners or Rotten Boroughs in Private Eye to get an insight as to how this is already a serious problems in many parts of the country. |
