IF Caroline Flint, our eagle-eyed housing minister, looked at the whole Eco-Town site from the runway at Ford Airfield (Gazette letters, August 14), can I suggest that Gordon Brown puts her in charge of NHS ophthalmic services nationally?
How can she possibly have seen "the whole site" — up to the railway line at the north of Ford, down toward the Oystercatcher at Climping and to the far side of Yapton — from there?
The developers claim that the site is a brownfield site and will n
ot acknowledge that it is almost all agricultural green fields — let's hope that Mrs Flint can see through their pretence!
One correction that should be made is to Tony Dixon's assertion (Gazette letters, August 14) that the community campaign is "council-led".
That is a blatant untruth and we can only wonder at his motives for repeating it so often.
