| Tracie, I've just gone back through my various contributions to this thread, and the bulk of them (bar my response yesterday) contains lengthy points about the wider planning policy context and limitations of the associated legislation, and how both affect decisions. Inevitably I share some personal experiences or views in the course of doing so, but there's no "me me me" here. I simply don't like it when people, whoever they are and whatever the subject, make things up, be it about me or anyone else. Like your claim that I'd never encountered dodgy dealings. That made it about me, and because it was totally inaccurate it generated a reaction. Silence would have tacitly implied you were correct. Not a remotely defensive response I should add, more providing examples of some of the 'dodgy' behaviour I have come across, just to show that there's no suggestion on my part that everyone is whiter than white. All I ever try to bring to these forums is a broader awareness of the planning policy or legislative context, and yes, from a detached perspective - whether you or I agree wih it or not when planning decisions are made on appeals by independent Inspectors, that Inspector is purposely chosen on the basis that they don't live close by etc., so just because I don't live in Brentford anymore is entirely irrelevant. Indeed, that's another example of you, not me, being the one posting about me, rather than about the subject matter. I set out a detailed appraisal of housing issues within the capital at the moment, how the housing targets within the London Plan don't meet identified needs, how authorities on the fringes of the capital can't meet their housing land supply targets, resulting in new Local Plans identifying green belt sites for housing and so forth. I then happened to end that post by providing a short personal view that I don't share the 'fondness' for the capital that many people do. You seized upon that (rather than the many preceding paragraphs) as the basis for a post suggesting I was advocating everyone move out of London. Again, you were making it about me, which I most certainly wasn't. We're all human, we all make mistakes, we all say the wrong things, it was harsh and unreasonable of me to call you a fool and a liar earlier - my patience ran out. The 'test' of anyone is whether they make a mistake or not, it's how they deal with making a mistake. The advice I always give to objectors to a planning application is to keep their objections credible and not undermine them by making wild or unsubstantiated allegations or claims that they can't back up. Because, one an objector goes down that route, any points within their representations might might otherwise be wholly valid and credible become tainted. And to me the same applies here. Personally, I couldn't care less whether I am popular or unpopular on these forums or in 'real life' - it's unlikely anyone who is sensitive to being liked or disliked would ever choose a career in planning. |
