To whip up the membership of the Leitrim Avenue Peter Lovett fan club, sorry, the Shoeburyness Residents Association, John Budge from the Shoeburyness Residents Association have 'blasted' our local councillors for the heinous crime of...asking residents in the flood plain their views on the proposed flood defences. Here is a copy of the offending leaflet which caused John Budge to look totally spaced out and danger man Peter Lovett to look mortified.
This is the same John Budge who urged residents to attend a public meeting so the council could hear a wide range of views? Surely not.
Or the same Peter Lovett who accuses the council of not listening to the views of the electorate but doesn't want our local councillors to solicit residents view? Surely not.
If danger man Peter Lovett believes their is such huge opposition, then surely he would want residents to tell their councillors? The real reason why Peter Lovett does not like residents in the flood plain being asked their views can be found in the last line of a recent readers letter. His motive is only for the people who use Shoebury Common recreationally not to protect residents in the flood plain whose lives could be in danger. Peter Lovett = one very, very dangerous man.
It is correct to say that we do not want any councillor telling us lies, when you can simply check the Thames Barrier website for the truth. Everybody listed on this blog has given facts, as mentioned above, so why do you not concentrate on proving these facts wrong rather than just adding silly comments. 650 Residents told their local councillor that they do not want this wall, but the trouble is - they are not listening and do not care what their electorate think. Why not make public the online survey? Why not answer simple questions?
