Newspaper article-style graphic explaining a u-turn by developers at Roanhead
The latest from Roanhead - this just isn't on π€¬
Developers are now claiming only 9% of visitors will leave the "contained" site for Sandscale Haws nature reserve, SSSI and Ramsar protected areas. π€Sounds like they've broken their promises to local businesses on top of everything else π€

Walkers protest over riverbank access
Campaigners take to the banks of the River Dart, calling for the right to access all English rivers.
There are around 1,500 rivers in Britain, so the governmentβs manifesto pledge to create a mere 9 river walks is simply pathetic.
Give the public a right of responsible access to all rivers & the wider countryside.

Amendment 130 of the Planning Bill is a vital step toward ensuring the new planning approach supports nature.
Without it, new rules could be applied in inappropriate places, putting both nature and development at risk.
