    The assumption that to build more houses in Britain is good for the economy because it means more people will move to Britain and consequently pay council tax, and shop, does not take into account that more hospitals and clinics would need to be built, and more schools.

    The NHS would need to expand, the roads would need to be repaired more often to cope with more cars and lorries.

    Our farms and woodlands would disappear ever more.

    The Army is being reduced to 82,000 soldiers due to spending cuts; the Police Force is being cut because it costs too much according to the Government; the NHS is being trimmed down due to spending cuts; council budgets are being reduced by 40% through spending cuts; care for elderly people has been cut by 20% since the Coalition got in, and G. Osborne is about to deliberate whether to cut care even more.

    And yet, DDC's core strategy plans to treble Dover's population with over 10,000 new homes until 2026.

    So if all councils in Britain follow Dover's example and treble the nationwide population to 200 million, and sacrifice the Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty and the Scheduled Ancient Monuments, such as Farthingloe and Western Heights, and the woods and farmlands as in Whitfield and Sholden and Guston, who will this benefit?

    If the Council gives permission to build even one house on an AONB or on a SAM, then a precedent will have been created, and it would go on and become thousands and millions of houses all over Britain, and no wood and no farm will be safe, as these have lesser status than an AONB or a SAM.

    We all know that the 10,000+ houses DDC want to build in and around Dover are not meant for Dovorians.
    And no jobs are being created locally anyway.

    They just want to take away everything from us and hand it over to others!

    We need to put Kent, Freedom and Democracy first, otherwise we may become a part of Greater London and cease to exist!
