Harold Hall, the man who is happy to ravage the countryside, destroy the lives of thousands of villagers, create the misery of traffic chaos for eight years and sneer "NIMBY" at anyone who has the audacity to object to the idea is revealed as a hypocrite of the first order.
It seems that Harold was not too happy when plans were revealed to extend licensing hours at the local YHA earlier this year, as it would shatter the peaceful surroundings of his Warningcamp home, an area of "outstanding natural beauty" near Arundel.
He Said ... "Watch out. The hostels are fine on the face of it, but watch out for the special events. They are open for weddings, family anniversary weekends and things of that nature, so they need to be watched very carefully. People need to be prepared."
I almost wept with compassion at the thought of poor Harold having his peace and quiet disturbed by the occasional rowdy wedding.
How would he feel about having a town built at the bottom of his garden?

Anyway, I'm done with bashing Harold. I'm not usually one for character-assassination, but this little snippet really got my bile rising.

NIMBY; Acronym for “Not In My Back Yard.” A term for a person who resists unwanted development, such as manufacturing plants, prisons, power companies, or chemical companies in his or her own neighborhood or town.
I have made several attempts in the newspapers and on this blog asking 'ex Council Leader' Mr Hall who is so pro Eco-Towns if he would welcome such a development in Warningcamp? Mr Hall has resisted to answer this question publicly - so one would assume he is a NIMBY calling us NIMBY's!
