Upton Snodsbury Proposed Chicken Farm on Central ITV News

Central ITV News filmed at the site of Upton Snodsbury Chicken Farm today - Alastair Findlay did a great job being interviewed. As Alastair said, to misquote David Cameron (who yesterday was talking about how English people have no vote but they do have a voice), we have a vote and no voice.

There is a definite feeling among the local population that a bad decision has been made. An unjust decision. This is understandable as the applicant and agent have experience of playing a system that has the odds stacked in their favour. The system is not democratic and it is not fair.

Our landscape will change, it will smell when the manure is spread and when the sheds are emptied, it will be noisier than it is now and the peace and tranquility that exists in this area will never be the same.

Here is some of the flooding from today - another 2.5 metres and we would be up to the 2007 levels..
