LOCAL DEMOCRACY’S LAST CHANCE IN NORTH SOMERSET?

THE REAL WORLD IGNORED AS BUREAUCRATS ALIGN WITH BRISTOL AIRPORT
The recommendation by North Somerset planning bureaucrats to support Airport expansion is largely based on outdated legislation and the political vacuum on climate change. The planner’s legalistic document ignores the reality of the climate emergency and shows complete disregard for people’s lives.
The manifesto of this unholy alliance between bureaucrats and big business inflicts an additional 4000 deregulated night flights, mostly across the summer, together with an additional 9000 cars daily on local roads, and parking sprawl across the green belt and neighbouring fields. The NOISE from night flights will cause further harm to mental health and wellbeing of all, and especially for the sick and the vulnerable, not least the elderly and our children.
These recommendations are intolerable and inhuman. Our lives cannot be ruled by indifferent planning officers and the Airport’s avaricious appetite for profit. Only the 27 Councillors faced with approving or rejecting the application can now challenge this appalling alignment of bureaucrats and big business.
