We who live locally who were born & raised here are sick and fed up with this total destruction of our country side & surrounding FARM LAND. We are already being totally surrounded with new houses 4500 ~@ Barkby Thorpe 320 @ the side of "new Hamilton " a load just built on the edge of Barkby Thorpe plus the already surrounding sprawl of Scraptoft. We were born in the countryside & do NOT wish to live in & amongst a built up noisy mostly foreign immigrants.
Charnwood council are pushing it all on our aria away from them now it seems you are doing the same you have plenty of fields to rip up, we want as ENGLISH people to live in peace as we are used to, Barkby village a farming community is being overrun destroyed overwhelmed with rapidly increasing traffic on old country lanes , there are around 100,000 empty council houses boarded up, repair those.
There aren't the schools the clinics police etc. to cope, the roads around here CANNOT manage with all this extra traffic & pollution. We have the wright to have a good quality of life as we have toiled & paid for it all our lives, STOP this ridiculous non stop building in THIS area. STOP IMIGRATION THEN WE DON'T NEED TO RIP UP OUR COUNTRY SIDE and WE can have a QUALITY of life we were raised to enjoying, we are not (townies) & so stop destroying peoples lives & way of life. THAT ARE INDIGINOUSE TO THIS COUNTRY. ENGLISH FIRST.. like other countries as a well travelled person they put there own FIRST.
