Can they just call this one an eco town and leave the rest of us alone?

"In a debate on housing, South Cambridgeshire MP Andrew Lansley urged the new housing minister, John Healey, to make the 9,500-home settlement "the first exemplary eco-town".If it secures that designation, it will qualify for extra funding, including cash to make homes more energy-efficient."

Maybe they can save some face by having one 'eco town' to their name - and quietly let us get on with our lives?
