Are you really though, @lornaslater ? What about Slochy? A woodlands being destroyed for 7 luxury homes. An important wildlife habitat gone. We are having to take the matter to Court. Money + Mouth springs to mind, and an entirely corrupt planning system.
Scotland has some of the most beautiful and iconic natural scenery and wildlife in the world, and we are putting it at the heart of our recovery. πππ² edinburghnews.scotsman.com/nβ¦
We have used our statutory right of appeal to challenge the decision of the Local Review Body in terms of this consent.
We have appointed Senior & Junior Counsel and an instructing Solicitor.
And thereβs the small matter of a Protective Expenses Order.
Weβre not playing.
Having just lodged our appeal in Court, we know how expensive this process is, but you canβt put a price of environmental justice. Please give what you can. #SaveSwanscombe
Good morning! βοΈ
Please can you help #SaveSwanscombe
By helping to raise Β£10,000 with @CrowdJustice to get the much needed legal & expert advice - and stop this wildlife haven becoming a theme park?
Please retweet, thank you ππ»πππ

On behalf of the group, we would like to thank each and every one of you for supporting us; your support means the world and means we can give the Slochy Woodland residents a voice. Bring on 2022 when the fight continues as we head to the Court of Session.
We are still here, battling on. The Decision Notice for the consent has been issued and we have 5 weeks now to apply to the Court of Session to use our statutory right of appeal. Watch this space for further updates.

This is the hard truth; the planet needs us to protect what remaining green spaces we have left; Slochy Woodlands is one such gem. We all need to make our voices and actions count.

Yet, Slochy Woodlands is still to be destroyed to make way for 7 luxury homes.
The UK has lost almost half of its wildlife & plant species as a result of human & land development since the Industrial Revolution.

We havenβt given up on Slochy Woodlands; weβre preparing to go to Court. We want the nation to hear our case and learn of the corruption inherent within the planning process. #COP26 #ExtinctionRebellion #deforestation #saveslochywoodlands #ecocide #EnvironmentalJustice
#weholdourbreath in the hope that people will see sense and prevent the mindless and unnecessary destruction of Slochy Woodlands #saveslochywoodlands #COP26 #ClimateAction #ClimateEmergency #EnvironmentalJustice #ecocide #NoPlanetB
This is it. At COP next week, we must deliver for the worldβs forests. Our lives depend on it.
