It would be interesting to see the results of the public consultation and how those responses influenced the final decision.

As I commented in my own response I would not expect any notice at to be taken at all of what the public think

We are living in a Democratic Dictatorship.
 

Plans look great.Having more storage will be a huge relief to Chris.

I see a few independent shops have moved in.Just hope they all survive the pandemic.

Think covid virus has put the last nail in the coffin of retail businesses in the UK & its also looking bad for Marks & Spencer too.
 

As a friend of mine said, If this was a Man he would have been jailed.

I see the  road & homes going into Kingsland just after the Lugg bridge have escaped flooding this time.  Wounder why 

My lad was told to get a test as one of his workmates had a positive test on Sunday.He's been with my daughter most of the weekend with her kids and had a test on Monday that came back Tuesdady as positive so as he lives with us we all have to isolate for 10 days.Wierd thing is my daughters test has just come back as negative.
Still waiting for our tests to come back.

Can see that working at the pay and go tills in supermarkets.must of been a dozen of us paying for our goods in asda in a 3mtr space.

Just the excuse my wife is looking for.Guess I'll be painting and decorating for the next six weeks

I should think so considering her earns £40million a year plus all endorsements! I agree that he should have been recognised for his achievement in motorsport but I do not agree that he should have been knighted. 

What about Chris Hoy or Mo Farrah ?

I personally think this honours system is flawed and Lewis Hamilton receiving a knighthood come on! Maybe an OBE but knighthood?

So Sir Tom gets a Knighthood for raising £32million for the NHS Then Lewis Hamilton gets a knighthood for hiding £32million from the NHS

Three wrongs don’t make a right!

Your quote that he refuses to live in the UK is pointless & a joke.He can live wherever he wants.
He still pays taxes in this Country and is one of the top 5,000 tax payers in the UK

Well as I understand it the route is a public bridleway and the Council have the responsibility to keep it open for use. The only message that this prolonged closure sends out like in so many other areas is that the Council cannot be bothered. After all it is not really a major route for residents and tourists is it?

Its like all the graffiti in and around the City.Herefordshire Council can contact owners of property that they don't own and give them three weeks notice to remove it.If not they can have it removed and send the bill to the property owners.
Sick & tired of the incompetence of this Council.

The Honours System is a joke - Sir Jimmy Savile, Sir Philip Green? Now a knighthood for someone who refuses to live in the UK for fear of paying his full share of taxation. 

Pretty sure anyone with the money he has accumulated would live somewhere other than th UK,You never heard anyone have a go at Sir Jakie Stewart who lived most of his life in Switzerland 
Jim n Phil were given their gongs before they became infamous & Savile lost his the day he died.

Well we have had a death by cyclist in high town a few years back.I can go through town on any day and encounter more than a few cyclists riding on their bikes.

Note that Lewis Hamilton has been knighted for driving around in circles, that I am sure he does it very well. I am surprised that all our MPs have not been similarly knighted as they have been taking us mere mortals for a ride in circles for years.

Note that Sir Chris Hoy who was the son of very wealthy parents and educated at a private School did the same but because he's white he never got any flack.

Anyone else sick & tired with most of the traffic lights being on a generic timer?
Money needs to be spent on a complete update of traffic signals and removal of ones that do nothing but stuff the traffic up ie Newmarket Rounfabout.
And why the box junction that was painted in error on the right turn into Widemarsh St still not been removed is beyond me.Have lost count of the times I have reported it.
 

Belated happy Christmas to you all

Right by my mothers place...Shocking

Also stopped this bloke driving from a tier 4 area.
Driver said he was only driving home for Christmas ......

Mr Sharky needs to read the full facts before going on this half arsed  rant.
 

Fantastic archive video from the BBC archives site, 'on this day' in May 1965.

Moving the old black & White building in High Town to make way for the new Marks & Spencer building.
Looks like good old health & safety pretty much never existed

Looks like one of those police cctv images.
