Respect to locals

If there was any justice in the world, the good people of Rochford who have been passionately fighting to save their clean air, wildlife and children’s safety, would be successful in persuading Bloor Homes to modify their road junction plans outside Hold Farm School.

Sadly, so far, it seems there is no justice and money appears to speak far louder than local resident’s voices.

The council are surely aware of just how dangerous the Ashingdon Road there is. And with clear evidence that new trees planted cannot benefit wildlife and environment nearly as much as existing mature ones, it seems that they are neglecting their duties and responsibilities to residents in every way by letting this injustice take place.

Huge respect to the incredible locals who have been at the beautiful oak tree in all weathers. They deserve to be heard.
