Is it truly necessary to use Greenbelt land!?
Aren’t we meant to, particularly in the current geo-political environment, be trying to become more resilient, self-sufficient, increase bio diversity and have access to green spaces for our wellbeing.
With more and more Greenbelt being used for housing, we move further and further await from that ambition.

Please lets ensure that all other avenues of possibility are explored before we just give up and lose our protected land to housing.
Decisions should be made for good long-term outcomes and not just short-term problem solving.
