Respondent: Debbie Irish
I do not accept that the UK government ARC concept should be accepted as it is and the BBC have simply accepted it to the detriment of the people of North Beds they are meant to be representing. The government itself is reviewing the arbitrary nature of the concept and the soundbites provided by the likes of Lord Adonis. Before rolling over and accepting the plans, as your preamble strongly implies, we should be taking a much more local stance and genuinely thinking of what is needing locally. We will become a laughing stock if we keep naively saying yes.
