      • • Rumbridge Street - A Patchwork Quilt
        26/07/10
        A number of residents have asked me why the brand new pavement surface in Rumbridge Street, Totton is already beginning to look like a patchwork quilt. In several places, it has been dug up. Unlike the surrounding high quality yellow coloured surface, the repaired patches are just black asphalt.
      • • Polluted Land in Totton - Soft Response
        26/07/10
        I have rather fallen out with the majority of members on the New Forest District Council. In my view, they talk tough but act soft when it comes to care of the environment, especially in my home town of Totton.

        At a meeting of New Forest Council this week, Councillor David Harrison, the member for Totton South blasted the ruling Tory group for adopting a softly, soft

        20/07/10
        New Forest District Council has granted planning permission to allow the Asda store at Totton to expand.

        The conservative controlled authority went against officer advice to reject the scheme.
        The shopping area will grow larger and the plans also allow for a one-storey car parking a

        The South East Public Health Observatory has just published a health summary which shows how the health of the people living in the New Forest District compares with the rest of England.

        08/07/10
        The majority of Councillors, whether parish, district or county members, rarely (if ever), attend national conferences. I’m one that does. I find I get a lot from them. I’m always rooting around for ideas and wanting to know what the future holds. One of the best ways to achieve this, is to attend t
