Here is John Baron's response to our recent letter. We'll probably be meeting with him soon so let us know what you think of his views. The eagle eyed may notice some delicate Photoshopping. We've redacted two sections to protect the privacy of ourselves and Mr Baron.

There are many objecting to green belt development. As an elected MP it appears that John Baron is not representing us at all - other MPs are involved for their constituents. He has now lost votes!

GIven the Conservative manifesto promise " The greenbelt will be safe in our hands", It is evident that careful attention should be given to the semantics of this letter and I am particularly concerned about the phrase "Provided sufficient infrastructure investment is available". I feel justified in being sceptical about such comments as this offers no assurance of the physical provision of sufficient infrastructure, necessary to meet the demands of the proposed excessive residential expansion. As such, it would be favourable for the infrastructure to be put in place first. Notwithstanding this, I wholly object to any development of the greenbelt,on principle, and intend to reflect this at any future visit to the ballot box. Your comment will be posted after it is approved.

Aims of BAGTo protect the Green Belt around Billericay and elsewhere in Basildon Borough from loss through excessive and unjustified development.
To prevent the character of our historic towns from being changed forever. To ensure that any development that does take place is sustainable, with adequate infrastructure and prioritises local needs. We support the need for a new Basildon Local Plan and the need for more housing. But it must be of the right number, the right type and in the right places to best help local people obtain a home of their own.
