🔥🌳 Great to see CLLR Martin farrimond standing with Gibfield residents and taking their fight against Green Belt development to GB News! 👏📺

Residents deserve to be heard — and our Green Belt and natural wetlands must be protected! 💪🌿🦆

🚫 NO to building on the Green Belt
🚫 NO to Peel’s damaging plans
🚫 NO to destroying our precious wetlands

Keep up the fight, Martin!

👏🔥 Together, we must stand up for our community! 💚✊

🚨*BIG QUESTIONS FOR GREATER MANCHESTER*🚨

On Sunday, we learned that planning powers could be handed to regional mayors — allowing them to potentially OVERRIDE local planning decisions. 🏗️⚠️

Now, Greater Manchester is set to receive over £500 MILLION to build new homes. 💷🏘️

So people can understand:

I’m not against building new homes, we need them.

But surely we’re entitled to ask some serious questions… 👇

🌳 1. Does the Green Belt still matter?
💰 2. Where exactly is this £500 million coming from — and who ultimately pays?
🗳️ 3. What is happening to local democracy?
🏛️ 4. Do local planning authorities even matter anymore if decisions can simply be overridden?

Building homes is important. But so are democracy, local accountability and protecting the places we value.

Are we seeing genuine progress — or the steady centralisation of power away from local communities? 🤔
