He's already showing signs of weakness on the ludicrous 'garden bridge' vanity project of blonde bombshells Joanna Lumley and Boris Johnson (see Ian Jack article in yesterday's Guardian).<br />Mike Hine Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2129943063330427887.post-41209170477816935182016-05-22T11:22:56.529+01:002016-05-22T11:22:56.529+01:00I do so agree.

I hope it was widely publicised yesterday so that visitors to the stadium became aware of all that Quintain propose to do and that all the spaces they use and enjoy will be gone.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2129943063330427887.post-4286867090734316052016-05-22T10:47:21.558+01:002016-05-22T10:47:21.558+01:00As Quintain consistently move the goal posts since...As Quintain consistently move the goal posts since initial planning consent was granted. The FA and Quintain was never going to be a partnership/understanding made in heaven. The FA should stick to their guns and call for an appeal, get backing from FIFA, Sport England and Mayor.Jaine Lunnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07815584566299095436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2129943063330427887.post-67358096479548397472016-05-21T16:20:01.261+01:002016-05-21T16:20:01.261+01:00Given the actions and decisions of Brent Council&#...Given the actions and decisions of Brent Council's Planning Committee as revealed through Wembley Matters blog, it strikes me that that Committee is very like the European Commissioner's office that wants to foist 'Transatlantic Trade & Investment Partnership' 'corporate lawyers trump democracy' practices upon us all without our consent or the consent of the European Parliament.<br /><br />And would not Quintain love to unleash their corporate lawyers upon us all in defence -- sorry, defense -- of Quintain's 'property rights'?<br /><br />All the same, I shall still be voting for the UK to remain in the EU, as I reckon that a truly social Europe with Britain in it is our best defence against the supremacy of global corporations.<br /><br />Alan WheatleyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
