WHEN is the Minister of the Environment going to do his job and protect what rural amenities we have left?

I am horrified at the amount we have lost.

We don't all want to have to go abroad to see countryside which we already have here.

I am right behind the villagers of Woodplumpton and feel it's time that councils realised that their first duty is to the people they are supposed to represent.

Come back the days when councillors were unpaid and determined in their struggle to do right by their constituents.
