So how do the Lib Dems tackle this issue? Well this is what they feel is the best move, as part of the planning application, they allow ‘The Point’ to incorporate in their new build, three self contained 2 bedroom flats for the use of dancers in case they get tired and need to sleep. Yet we are told that these modern flats with over looking balcony’s in to the Recreation ground will only be used for 20 weeks a year. So for 32 weeks, or 7 months, these flats will be EMPTY when the most vulnerable people in Eastleigh who need housing are denied them by this Lib Dem council. <BR/>This council is planning to take what is YOUR open green space, and turned it into a commercial business, that if you now wish to sit and read a book in the peace of the shade of Sid you can NOT. Further, to use this space that is YOUR’S, you will now have to PAY to use it. Not just once, but twice.!! Firstly to enter the building to get to the space and second in council tax subsidies that currently run at £320,000.00 a year for the Point. This is based on the current size of the building. If the building becomes bigger and uses more staff and services like water and electricity then the burden on the tax payer will increase.<BR/>If this does not make you question if OUR Borough is safe in their hands, then consider that it has come to our attention that now they have gotten away with this highly controversial and environmental rape of OUR land, they have plans to reopen the possibility of building on Grantham Green and Lawn Road Green, after all as one Lib Dem council said, ‘No one can stop us now.”<BR/>Well no one but you...In May 2008 say NO MORE..!!Matt Myattnoreply@blogger.com
