Adastral New Town


Through my door came a small white card addressed to me about postcard size at first pass I noticed it came from the council office it also had a Suffolk costal District Council logo, beyond that its message was unclear.


It referred to the revised core strategy that is being moved to consultation. After reading the hole card and cross referring to the councils web site the true meaning became clear.

This is a trough pice of toning down the message, I think someone has been watching too much Yes Minister, a good document to be referred to the plain English campaign.
The true nature of the document is the planed Adastral New Town which other than our elected officials and the companies making money out of the project is unpopular with the hole of the electorate, true democracy at work.
So with a subject like Adastral New Town it is no wonder that they have made the document so obscure that most people will not make the connection. Trough democracy at work, let the electorate think they have a say then just carry out the plan regardless.

It’s not as if the community is getting a benefit out of this, faster broadband or a better road network, the existing A14 and A12 are becoming a problem and will only get worse, I have been considering moving my business to somewhere more central neat the A11 this will probably be the decider.
