"Not near my three million quid mansion thank you very much"
Our finest hour
Dear MP,
I am writing to you to ask you to do something about this story which I am outraged about. So, okay, these men have been injured in their service to the nation and their families need to be housed SOMEWHERE when they visit them in the nearby military hospital, but why here?
It's just another shocking example of how the Labour Party don't care about Hard-Working People that they just want to dump a house full of soldiers wives (called names like "Tracey" I shouldn't wonder) right in the middle of a prime leafy location (my street). You don't CARE about what this will do to my house price do you? You've got your snout in the trough after all and aren't bothered about what happens to Ordinary People.
I had cause to write to you a few years ago about how we should be locking more of these young hoodlums up in prison and then found - to my horror - that there was a proposal to build a new prison just a mile down the road from me! A totally ludicrious suggestion, it was agreed all round, and luckily enough of us banded together to persuade the council that a better location would be in between the primary school and the old people's home in the council estate three miles away.
But it just goes to show that - once again - politicians aren't listening to what people want. I served in the war I'll have you know, so don't go giving me all this "they're soldiers, they deserve some assistance in your neck of the woods". Okay, so I had a "home for heroes" when I returned from Italy in 1945 and plenty of assistance in finding work, but now I've done good for myself thank you very much and I'll be damned if I'm going to give up everything that I've worked for (all by myself) to a bunch of lower-class oiks who should have had the foresight not to have had themselves injured in serving this country and our Queen (God bless you, ma'am) in the first place.
I shall never vote again because you're all the same - selfish and in it for yourselves.
Yours,
Outraged of Ashtead

And another good thing about this news is that we now know at least one area which would be perfect when trying to identify legal sites for gypsies and travellers.
Hey, why not bury some nuclear waste there?
Ladies, ladies, let's keep in civilised! The one good thing about this story was how the (Tory) MP kept his head right from the beginning it would appear and was behind the development in spite of the angry yappings of his privileged constituents.
Not an easy thing to do when you are getting angry calls and letters from people who know how to work the process.
Couldn't care less about the privileged residents of that street. But I can't, for the life of me, fathom why the hospital want to stick their accomodation there, two miles away. Wouldn't it make more sense to sell that site and use the money to build the accomodation in the large grounds of the hospital itself? The whole point in the first place was for the relatives to be somewhere nearby, something that seems to have gotten lost in all of this.
