Your Say

It would appear that Mr Munro (August 1 edition) needs to connect closer with the electorate, throughout the country.

It is often said a week is a long time in politics and so it has proved as the Chequers agreement optimistically praised by Gillian Keegan in her column has now been rewritten by the far right of her party who are the ones who really hold the reins of power.

Mr Howbeck (Letters, July 19), is high in emotion and low in facts. His reference to ‘Berlin’s Article 50’ is ridiculous, emotional and incorrect. Article 50 is the EU’s, not Berlin’s and an eminent British lawyer, Lord Kerr of Kinlochard, drafted it.

Recent editions of the Chichester Observer have covered ideas for the future of Chichester. The big question seems to be about renewal – how to keep a great city alive, accessible to all and full of places and things that people want to see and do.

Shocked to hear about the council’s attempt to destroy the jewel of Chichester and Priory Park.

Underpasses are notorious for their susceptibility to flooding, even in areas well above sea level where drainage is not normally a problem, as illustrated by this week’s heavy rains further north.

In my opinion West Sussex County Council have totally failed in their ability to manage the benefits that would have accrued to the Chichester community if they had secured the £250m road investment in 2017.

For those that support the ‘Full South’ Concept (SYSTRA report) as their preferred solution to the A27 at Chichester, I would invite them to have a look at the A3 Kingston bypass because that is likely to be the outcome.

I am appalled at the council’s attitude.

Making difficult decisions is never easy as I’m sure Nick Herbert will understand.
