Net Value

This is the length 'developers' will go to ensure that nothing stops them in their path to profit. The site is a school on Inglemire Lane and plans have been submitted for some new buildings. The netting, would you believe, is to stop birds nesting which would delay these crazed folks from uprooting the trees. Time is money ....
Anyway an open space amenity is now fenced off and ruined by heavy machinery. All this before permission has even been granted to go ahead with the 'development' and despite a protection order being in place. A Council spokeswoman said "The nets are up to protect the birds."  I suppose the fencing is to protect the people!
