• I wonder how many of the protest group voted to leave the EU?

    NIMBY when it comes to scary immigrants
    NIMBY when it comes to the consequences

  • Irrespective of how they voted, why should the government be able to fast track a facility like that without following the normal planning process?

  • I agree but I would still like to say 'told you so' because its delicious

  • Is there a suggestion that the govt has acted illegally / against planning, or have they perhaps used a method that wouldn't be available to someone trying to build a conservatory? I don't think the article said (or didn't understand it if it did).

    Still, the schadenfreude is strong with those kind of articles. In my head I assume that the pensioner who only wanted to retire in his cottage in peace and quiet next to a lovely visitor centre for the castle would have voted leave; I wish the journalists would ask sometimes - it would make a difference to my reception of the articles.

  • Of course not - In shock news, the government are still cunts.

    Doesn't make me feel too sorry for people who probably voted for this out of bigotry and ignorance.

    Their only consequence is less picturesque views where they live. For other people, it's their livelihood.
