  1. Must say the Jess is being very hesitant in coming out. That is In or Out
  2. Just listened to the disgraceful behaviour in Parliament today when Cameroon made a supposed crack about Corbyn's suit. And they think they are big enough to stand alone and run a country - frightening
  3. Glad we have you TWG to keep them on their toes!!
  4. Did the PA for FC's signage also fall down the back of the sofa or did that slip through unnoticed?
  5. I agreee with you Colin one or two of these strategically placed in Hereford would certainly go quite some way of solving the housing shortage for ones and two's
  6. Or one of these. Each one has 200 apartments and there are 3 scheduled to be built in Birmingham near the Corn Exchange I think Subscribe
  7. If as has been suggested that Wiggin has declared he is an out man and he is an alledged farmer's friend how can he declare his preference when he will be going into the great unknown?

  8. So the Meeting went well! Taken from the Farmers Weekly a nationally and possibly internationally read mag for the farming industry not showing Herefordshire Council in a very good light. Petition against council farm sell-off snowballsJez Fredenburgh Friday 19 February 2016 15:00 David Hughes/Robert Harding/REX/Shutterstock A campaign to save county council farm tenancies in Herefordshire has amassed more than 500 signatures in its first day and has now gone past 800. At least six farming tenants of Herefordshire County Council have been served notice to quit, despite believing the council had given assurances in December tenancies would be protected. A total of 15 tenancies are due to be served notice this year following the council’s decision to sell its farming estate. It is expected that 30 tenants on Agricultural Holdings Act (AHA) tenancies will also be affected by the transfer to a new landlord. See more: Council accused of ‘misleading’ tenants on estate sell-off A petition to urge the council to reconsider the sale and take back the notices to quit has reached near to 1,000 signatures since its launch yesterday. Sell off a ‘waste’ for future generationsWelsh Newton Young Farmers’ Club member Rebecca Roper, who started the petition said it was shocking Herefordshire Council had made the decision in the way it had. “I’m not a tenant and am lucky enough to come from a farming family with owned land. [The council’s decision] will ruin the chances of people who want to stand on their own two feet, but who don’t have land to inherit. “It’s just such a waste of opportunities for other tenants and future generations. The petition snowballed after Miss Roper posted it on Facebook yesterday and other people and Young Farmers Clubs started sharing it. She said she had received huge amounts of support from local people and many were asking her for copies so they could start a paper petition. Anger and frustration for tenantsThe council attracted anger earlier this month when it served notice to quit to five tenants, even though it had said in December people would not lose their homes or livelihoods as tenancies would be protected and transferred to a new owner. However, the leader of the council Tony Johnson toldFarmers Weekly he had only been referring to AHA tenancies at the time and he had said other tenants would not “necessarily†lose their livelihoods. “We look like we are going to lose our homes and businesses. I’m a little bit numb – we’re not sure where to move on from here†Nick Lloyd, farm business tenancy holder Farm business tenancy holder Nick Lloyd, was served notice earlier this month. He said: “We’ve had absolutely no contact from the council [since being served notice to quit] – no letters, visits or phone calls,†said Mr Lloyd. “We look like we are going to lose our homes and businesses. I’m a little bit numb – we’re not sure where to move on from here. “We will probably have to move county. But I don’t want to find somewhere else and move, for the council to then turn around and say our tenancy has been rescinded. “I’ve looked at a couple of farms and ground to let but nothing is fitting.†Mr Lloyd is planning to take the issue to the council ombudsman with the support of the Tenant Farmers Association (TFA) and ask for the notices to quit to be cancelled. Meeting with council proves ‘a let down’TFA chief executive George Dunn, said a meeting between the tenant’s association and the council on 8 February had been met with aggression and defensiveness by Harry Bramer, the councillor in charge of contracts and assets. Mr Dunn described Councillor Bramer’s attitude in the meeting as “negative, obtuse and completely devoid of any issue of concern for tenantsâ€. The TFA believed there were strong grounds to challenge the council’s decision to serve notices to quit, based on assurances made in December. R

  13. Let us hope some of the opposition are reading this and will do something similar.
  14. And a home Ms Morgan was cold and unfeeling I bet she hasn't lost any sleep over it
  15. Mike do you attend the Parish Council meetings?
  16. I agree with you Mike my comments were merely a civilian's comments and from I have learnt from planning applications. We in Kingstone are having a 35 house development stuck onto our cul de sac with the same small amount of parking spaces being made available to the new houses. In fullness of time the cars from the new development will be parking all the way along the existing road - it will be chaos but that is planning nowadays! Is anybody chasing up about the street lights and pavements?
  17. A stomach churning report press the BBC Midlands and you will see a report 4 Views BBC Midlands TodayLike Page 42 mins · Is there a future for tenant farming? Not in Herefordshire, it seems, after the county council chose to sell 45 small holdings, serving more than a dozen tenant farmers with notices to quit.
  18. As horrible as these chicken houses are chicken is now the no 1 meat. I eat chicken but only chicken that is produced in this country and it has to be much better for consumers to buy chicken that is produced in this country. If you think brolier houses are vile in this country I can assure you they are far worse in other countries. Anyway back to the topic there is a line " the planned new housing to the south west of Rotherwas." would this be the houses in the Grafton direction? This seems to assume that everything road and houses is signed sealed and delivered. However having said all that this seems good and I hope it is a genuine independent company and I wish them good luck.
  19. On every new housing development parking will be a problem in an attempt to encourage people to use different methods of transport. I think it works out on average about 2.2 cars/household that is taken over an development with 1/2/3 and 4 bedroomed houses. The visitors car park is very limited on new builds. People have cars and trade vehicles so parking is going to be more and more squeezed.
  20. This looks good utilising an existing beautiful building. Three people I think were given the opportunity to produce a plan for the library and museum and I know the age of one of the members. I congratulate them for their energetic innovative forward and positive thinking. Good luck to them. Better this than it to be turned into some fast food establishment
  21. Must be a prerequisite to become a Con Councillor - to be a convincing liar. Tony Johnson Graham Powell Phillip Price three members of the Cabinet all with Council farms on their patch I wonder what story they spun to the tenants to get their votes.
  22. Despite Tony Johnson Leader of the Herefordshire Council assuring the tenants that they would have a new landlord and other such assurances 15 Notices of Eviction have now been issued to the tenants - sinful

  24. Ministers delay funding application Despite time running out, ministers have yet to claim hundreds of millions of pounds in EU compensation for December’s floods. That’s according to reports in the Financial Times, which said the situation was the result of confusion over which government department should submit the claim. According to EU rules, claims must be submitted within 12 weeks of the first incident. Storm Desmond – which resulted in widespread flooding in Cumbria, Northern England and Southern Scotland – happened on Saturday, December 5. It was then followed by a number of other storms, which resulted in repeated flooding. Paul Cobbing, chief executive of the National Flood Forum, told the newspaper the floods had had a very severe impact on people, communities, businesses and infrastructure. He added the EU fund was available for ‘just this sort of situation’. “This is placing very considerable burdens on many local authorities and service providers that go well beyond the remit of the domestic financial compensation schemes the government has put in place,†he continued. The Financial Times stated it had been told by the environment department it was the responsibility of the Treasury to apply for the funding, but later said it was the responsibility of the communities department. The department told the newspaper the government had not ruled out applying for the funds. “We are assessing the case for an application and will make a decision shortly,†it said. It added that the government had already provided £200m to fund recovery and repair efforts. Source - NFU
