    I doubt anyone chooses to sleep in a tent outside m&s if there were decent alternatives, not hostels where you risk you minimal possessions or even safety. Make the shelters better and better prospects. If the people are here illegally then use that avenue, if they are legal then we should help those less fortunate not leave them to freeze

    Seems vindictive complaint to police from a local shooter who dislikes Packham. He was handling them to be weighed and ringed as a part of the a conservation license, a quick sniff check is not going to give me hem anymore distress.

    I pay £8 to have a supermarket flu jab each year....is (almost) cheaper than buying a pack of sudafed. Why get ill and treat symptom if can prevent

    I fully.support the NHS method as think it good value (if not starved of funding). But have to admit all systems can have flaws.

    I have a feeling whatever happens,.if the current owners build.anything there is enough bad sentiment in the area it may well be burnt down, so for public safety they should not stay owners.

    (This comment is in no way meant to say that arson is a good please don't burn anything down, but is a comment on the sentiment of.those there)

    I get it's different, but is it theft. If there was a wattmeter and I filled an inflatable swimming pools every day would that be theft... What if I brought an inflatable hot tub and ran the heater for the week. If electricity is included in the rate that implies the guest can use what they want

    This is why nothing ever gets done as the jobsworth councils want evreything discussed to nth degree. Set up the signs for bus only..if too many drivers still go through it discuss camera control. Why is a camera watching prohibited vehicles passing a bus only sign "very intrusive".

    They have now discussed it anyway so crack on. But guess they haven't had their 5th point of order and consulted the minutes from the 14th umpteen times
