A tale of the Knowsley Greenbelt 2000 to 2016

Sixteen years ago Knowsley Council sold off 6 acres of the King George V playing fields in Huyton. Despite telling residents that they would not sell them, under any circumstances.

Sixteen years on, Knowsley's Labour Councillors vote to release 1000 acres of greenbelt, and the Council insist on banning residents who protest and oppose this madness.

It's time the one party state in Knowsley had some opposition in place. The Labour Councillors in place do NOT represent the views of Knowsley Residents.

Knowsley Labour Councillors SAY one thing, and DO another. No different from your current Conservative Government.

This video attempts to show this, and tell the story of how Knowsley Labour are destroying Knowsley's Green space.

Merseyside Police Inspector says, "Anyone, can ban anyone, from anything"

Asking a Merseyside Police Inspector, under what law or power of exclusion, can Knowsley Council prevent members of the Public from attending Public meetings.

Bearing in mind, "The Local Authorities (Executive Arrangements) (Meetings and Access to Information) (England) Regulations 2012":

Regulation 4 (5) which states "Without prejudice to any power of exclusion to suppress or prevent disorderly conduct or other misbehaviour at a meeting, the decision-making body is not to have the power to exclude members of the public from a meeting while it is open to the public."

Inspector Rankine says, ""Anyone can ban anyone from doing anything"

Before you all start 'banning' things, what the Inspector says is not true.
