In 75th year since creation of National Parks, great to talk all things countryside & access @YHAOfficial @YHABath with CEOs of partners who campaigned for their formation: @RoseONei11 @Campaign4Parks; @CampaignerKate @openspacessoc; @roger_mortlock @CPRE & Ross @RamblersGB

NO @UKLabour @Keir_Starmer...
... THIS is the grey belt!!!!
Virtually every town in this country has tonnes of space for housing. Right in the town centre! Completely wasted surface car park space. Grrrr

Great to meet with the leaders of countryside access charities and share plans for influencing a new government. We missed you @RoseONei11 @CampaignerKate @JamesBlakeYHA @RamblersGB @CPRE

[Roger Mortlock @roger_mortlock]

Amazing day with @cprepdsy celebrating the Sheffield green belt and the remarkable link from the city to the Peak District for people and nature. Without the pioneering work of Ethel Haythornthwaite 100 years ago - it wouldn't be there @CPRE

[cprelancs @cprelancs]

Really valuable points made by @roger_mortlock CEO of @CPRE.

We don't need to sacrifice the countryside to meet housing demand, rather a genuine commitment to reusing the many brownfield sites that exists. Well said!

Great day launching the Hampshire Hedge with CPRE Hampshire @CPRE

@BBCPM @CarolineWyatt Allowing building on Green Belt too risky; will be abused by greedy builders who care nothing about nature.
Before destroying green spaces should utilise brownfield & empty houses, & ban second-homes, buy-for-Airbnb, etc

Thanks @morton_wendy for your advocacy for the green belt and a brownfield first approach @CPRE

CPRE loves our Green Belts. They stop needless loss of farm land and wildlife habitat. They ensure millions of people in cities and towns have 'countryside on the doorstep'. Listen to Jackie at 12:00 mins in.
