As has been said several times already, mine is the only point of view that has so far been expressed, and that even strikes me as odd. If you have contradictory evidence then share it. -------------------- Right an injustice - give Simon Kirby his allotment back!

Back to the original point
Simon's shoddy treatment highlights again how incompetent Newbury Town Council is. If they're not banning grieving families from placing mementoes on graves, they're turning away potential traders from the market, and now persecuting an allotment holder who wants things done differently. Seriously, why don't we abolish it? I am not sure how, but there's got to be a way. Who's in? -------------------- Newbury's #1 ill-informed internet poster

It takes six local electors to call a parish meeting, and then just ten electors to vote in favour of a motion to hold a referendum. If ten of us can agree on the text of a question to put the the people of Newbury then I suggest we force a referendum, either on self-management or de-parishing. Obvioulsy, it would be nice to get some support for my position too: I was prepared to lose my allotment if I was wrong about the consumer protection law, but I'm not prepared to lose it because I was right! -------------------- Right an injustice - give Simon Kirby his allotment back!

I have enquired of NTC whether they would consider out-sourcing management of the allotment sites.
this could save local tax-payers approx £50, 000 per annum. I am awaiting response from them. rgds. Tony -------------------- you couldn't make it up!

NTC say they would consider it, but a fully costed proposal would have to be submitted and there would also have to be support from the allotment holders. I've already asked the question on behalf of someone else.
