Pour all your obnoxious ingredients into the largest bucket you can find; let the contents fester for at least 6 months, then with your largest wooden spoon, stir it all up as vigorously as possible. If you find your short of an ingredient, just make it up and add as you go! Then send to all your followers around the world who are not in the least affected by the A303 at Stonehenge and don't have a clue where it is.
This from Stonehenge Alliance...... https://stonehengealliance.org.uk/redetermination-transport-secretary-would-like-to-hear-from-you/
Redetermination: Transport Secretary would like to hear from you
“The Secretary of State for Transport wants to make a new decision on the Stonehenge road scheme. He asked National Highways for responses to five matters he wishes to consider i.e. Alternatives, Policy, Carbon, Environmental Information and Any Other Matters.
National
Highways has responded and the Secretary of State for Transport has
now invited comments
on these submissions and any other relevant information.
Comments
must be submitted by midnight on 4 April 2022.
The
submissions by National Highways are technical and lengthy. The
Stonehenge Alliance and its expert advisers are preparing a full
technical response which we will share in due course.
However,
it is important that the Secretary of State for Transport hears from
the wider public on these issues. We’re therefore asking as
many people to respond as possible,
raising some or all of the points below.
If you can, please make
the points in your own words and add any other points you might wish
to make.
National
Highways has not:
made any changes to the Scheme to take the 2021 World Heritage Committee Decision into account;
acknowledged that the Secretary of State found the Scheme’s impact on the proposed western cutting area would be “significantly adverse”;
fully assessed alternative routes less damaging to the World Heritage Site e.g., a southern bypass route would be cheaper even if there might be some problems with it, while a longer tunnel would reduce impact on the World Heritage Site;
explored alternatives to hard engineering solutions in the context of safeguarding and enhancing the World Heritage Site - e.g. a package of measures to reduce road traffic, road emissions and improve access to the South West;
updated the scheme construction costs; nor
updated the carbon assessment and costs.
Other changes since the Examination closed:
concern for climate change has increased with the latest Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change report and the need to take urgent action to reduce emissions, not increase them as any new Stonehenge road scheme would; and
the Environment Act 2021 sets new ambitions around nature recovery.
Please
email your responses by 4 April to: remembering to include your name and address.
Many thanks for
your help and continued support.
John Adams OBE
Chairman”
One can't fail to notice that Stonehenge Alliance are asking the public around the world to "please make your points (presumably against the project) in your own words" but then go on to advise people what to say and include all the hyperbole they can find in that bucket mentioned earlier.
National Highways presented a series of slides at the most recent community forum – summarising what it has submitted in response to the Secretary of State’s Statement of Matters letter. So here’s a selection covering the main points which answer most of the gobbledygook made by SHA!
And just for the record.....
The writer of this blog and the majority of it's readers, stand along with our Ukrainian friends and ask......
Vladimir Putin to.......STOP THE BLOODY WAR!
