Sussex paper backs campaigners

ONE of Sussex's local newspapers has joined the battle against the government planning proposals.

The West Sussex County Times, based in Horsham, has launched a campaign called It's Just Plan Crazy and praised the formation of a new alliance against housebuilding in that part of the county.

It says on its website, www.wscountytimes.co.uk, "The County Times has long campaigned for planning decisions to be taken directly by those communities affected by them and we welcome this new alliance.

"To mark the event we have launched our own campaign, highlighting the contradictions of the Government’s Localism agenda versus its newly proposed planning regime."

Let's hope more newspapers follow suit and stand up for their readers and their county against the property development mafia!

The Save Our Sussex Alliance has a website at www.saveoursussex.com.
