Ratepayers deserve better hearing on Freedom Camping objections

Ronald from Stoke

In order to satisfy the objections of those people taking part in the freedom camping forum it would be most appropriate if the Leaders' Stu Hunt now publishes some of the remarks made by the contributors against freedom camping.
In the latest Leader , by the very nature of his editorial he has supported the views of the council and those in favour of the freedom camping ,that of which has resulting in uncalled for cost to ratepayers both financially and bad image. Let's see balanced reporting on this council stupidity in the next issue of the Leader and not something created for a headline grabber. it's now over to Stu Hunt to show he is equal to the task for which he is entrusted and not a one eyed parrot.
