The application was refused and then in controversial turnaround it's suddenly approved in a closed Plans Panel remote meeting! Our last little bit of green!

After 15 years of fighting, D-day has finally arrived. @ChrisGPackham we take our fight to save countryside and wildlife to court on Tuesday. A share would be the icing!

Less than 1 week to the Judicial Review. If permission is quashed this could set a legal precedent for other campaigns. Fundraising link in comments. Take a look at our story 👇🏻 Pls share and retweet

Finding this all a bit much today and it’s only just really started 😢 something about seeing green land ripped up is just heartbreaking 💔 it literally hurts. They’ve started on the last bit of grass this morning…. Just rolling it off like butter.

Anyone else noticed Tory MPs twitter accounts being deleted? @andreajenkyns. @jegullis @NadineDorries. Preparation for a GE? 🤔

Doesn’t take long does it? This is a day n a bit of Redrow’s destruction of our beautiful green field. Devastating 😢 and so wrong. @andreajenkyns did their CEO just give you another large Tory donation when you met with him?

I quite like the pylons!
From the @churchofengland Environmental Impact Assessment: "The landscape has a relatively weak landscape structure with limited features worthy of conservation, and a number of detracting features, including large pylons. The quality of the landscape is judged to be poor".

@sunlit_upland @WestyHaynes @NWBylines @dbj429 Martin, the 🍃💚🍃logo was my idea. I have encouraged people to adopt it for a couple years now. To support Tweets on #nature #wildlife #trees #birds #bees #greenspaces #greenbelt #waterways #hedgerows #WildflowerMeadows etc.etc. Support is widespread NO specific back yard.

This is amazing. Why can’t we get this? Come on @andreajenkyns it’s still not a done deal with the council, they DON’T yet have full approvals. It CAN still be called in!
Amazing result! A communities voice is being heard!👂 @BucksCouncil @GarethWatBucks @MATatBucks @CommunityPlann1 @SteveBakerHW @SarahGreenLD @RishiSunak @trussliz
#HolmerGreen & #Hazlemere won’t stop fighting to save our green spaces too! https://t.co/vpu6rC6hQv

Any news please? @andreajenkyns it’s been over a month. They’ve been stopped for now, they started before they got full permissions. Doesn’t bode well for our community the way they’ve entered the village like a wrecking ball…
@GregClarkMP just heard that @andreajenkyns is asking again to help us save this space! 3,500+ constituents objected and they can’t all be wrong! Pls help make this right. This community is crying out for help. We need this space and we need our roads to remain safe & accessible

Not a good weekend in our community. You can see the reservoir in our page background. Our thoughts are with the family and friends. Please don’t swim in reservoirs. They are NOT safe, they are incredibly cold and have unknown under currents.

The man was seen entering the water at the reservoir on Saturday afternoon.

This is ringing true very much so. Two weeks and I’ve barely seen anyone when usually it’s very social walking the dogs. Hate this development! Hate the council and bloody greedy developers and land owners 😢
@HaighHelp @Redrow People think it’s just an image. It’s not, it’s a place where memories are made, where people connect, where we can all escape, relax and disconnect from life. I get emotional taking these images, this #landscape is #irreplaceable

@MickInLeeds @Redrow @Redrowhomes I’ve emailed the “powers that be” twice now but work still continues. I know that we’re not going to stop them building but respect to both residents and the following of regulations should surely be a priority.

Now land acquired @redrow and their contractors showing their true colours by demonstrating massive lack of respect to not only #WestArdsley community but #LeedsCityCouncil planning process itself. @Redrowhomes behaviour is disgraceful and unacceptable. Complaints tsunami starts.
