Good morning Heather, well I looked up NIMBY and now I understand. Well I do appreciate the way that you feel although I cannot agree with you. Although I have now moved, all my family are still in Marple and my financial interests are in Marple and so I still have an interest in my fellow citizens.Unfortunately, in the immediate area where I am now living, there is not a suitable large area for Caravans and lorries to park or horses to graze, Marple seems to be an ideal area with all its potential useful sites.
This is a quote from the Homes and communities agency
"
As a group, travellers remain one of the most disadvantaged in the country, experiencing deep inequalities with very poor outcomes in health and education in particular. Authorised travellers’ sites can provide the basis for local authorities to tackle the inequalities experienced by travellers. Increased authorised provision will reduce the number of unauthorised sites and the tensions they can create between travellers and the settled community and reduce the need for costly enforcement action.

Just how much would a "Dale Farm" episode add to our council tax bills?
Have a nice day
