Looking through the "Is Newbury safe...?"responses on these boards I was struck by the fact that nobody seemed happy that the town was being rebuilt.
It occurred to me that from random conversations with kith and kin nobody of my acquiaintance admits to ever having been in favour of the redevelopment that is currently under way between Vicky park and Northbrook St. I suspect some are being a little economical with the actualite. After all, back at the beginning there must have been some sort of majority, or at least a large minority, that wanted this development, otherwise it implies that the town planners just ignored the citizens and did it all of their own backs. So come on! Hands up! Who will admit to being in favour, either then or now? |
