These are fundamental rights that should be considered the basic minimum entitlement for communities across the UK.

The Peoples Hub has been built to help people and to love the planet, and fully support this campaign. Greenwashing has become the new norm and it is unacceptable. More power needs to be given to / back to the people to improve communities, now and for generations to come. Ethics and transparency are key.

Fuel Poverty ActionMay 27, 2021, 2:12 pm
Fuel Poverty Action is particularly concerned about regeneration plans busting up communities and taking away people’s support networks, leading to more expensive housing and heating. Even building fabric is not necessarily more energy efficient as claimed, and there are huge carbon costs from reconstruction. Communities must have the right to make informed decision themselves.
Chalgrove Airfield Action GroupMay 6, 2021, 12:04 pm
Chalgrove Airfield Action Group has been representing the residents of Chalgrove and the surrounding villages and parishes to ensure that local planners understand and recognise the depth of opposition to placing a disproportionately large car-based settlement in an isolated rural setting. We need planners to understand that our objections may not be couched in idealised planning language, but are absolutely clear in the reasons why this is a terrible idea. We know our area better than you do – we know the chaos and environmental destruction this will cause. Listen to us.

The proposed reforms to the Planning system are the biggest challenge to democracy that are currently being put forward by this government. These reforms are rapidly heading towards even greater autocracy. The aims they are claiming to propound are spurious and meaningless and are purely included to attempt to give good reasons for bad legislation. This will result in a charter for developers to build whatever they wish, wherever they wish, whenever they wish with no thought to true affordable housing, the economy – other than their own, the environment, existing residents, countryside, habitats, pollution, quality of build. The many key workers of cities, towns and villages will still not be able to afford to buy their own home or be able to afford the uncontrolled rents since the deregulation of the Housing Associations that at being run for profit by large ‘friendly to this government’ overseas, and a few home grown conglomerates, to provide unregulated sub standard accommodation for vast profit – some at the expense of the tax payer – that will become the slums of today and tomorrow. A fine legacy for this government with purely self interest and ‘party donations’ at the heart of these reforms.

The new planning proposals will be a developers charter. The planning regulations as they stand can and are being manipulated to disempower at a neighbourhood level. The GMSF has been used by Rochdale council to bulldoze through proposals which have nothing to do with the principles of the GMSF but everything to do with increasing council tax and new homes bonus take by building on precious and protected green belt land. This is evident in the wholesale loss of green belt which is protected for a purpose, such areas are the lungs of the borough for all and once gone are gone forever. It is not necessary when so much brown field is available. Nowhere is the financial motive mentioned in any of the GMSF papers for any of the green belt site proposals. This is typical of the smoke and mirrors which characterises the whole process, the GMSF is a huge exercise in deception and misinformation with regard to the potential green belt loss. The lack of transparency and authoritarian imposition of decisions undemocratically decided will only get worse with the new bill.

The mobilization of citizens is strategic for local and global development. Reconquest of the common good shared and planned together in all places in Europe is a key point of democracy
