 The new Neighbourhood Planning and Infrastructure Bill announced this week abolishes the current legal requirements that force developers to carry out archaeological and wildlife surveys before starting housing projects. This will open the door to the potential wholesale destruction of archaeological and environmental sites, as regularly happened in the past before the introduction of the current legislation. There is an online petition to oppose this so please sign it.

I never used to be politically minded at all but this lot are steadily eroding everything that is good about this country so I have completely changed my attitude. I signed this and many other petitions over the last few months and slowly the message seems to be getting through to them that they are finally messing with the wrong people. We are generally regarded as a nation of armchair moaners who don't physically do anything but that opinion is changing.

Would be happy to sign it - but not a UK citizen.  have no idea if such things are checked. Sometimes in the States they are (on .gov petitions) and sometimes they are not.

Absolutely bloody typical of this new brand of Victorians. Yet another reason why we must not leave the EU and end up at the mercy of a group of people who want to do away with employee and human rights for their own personal gratification and xenophobia.
