@pgreenfielduk @hannahknuth @herrfischer @lukewbarratt The government's Biodiversity Net Gain Units could be the next big scandal - big developers paying to destroy native wildlife! https://t.co/jlQ0CB1jcw #greenwashing

@pgreenfielduk Could "Biodiversity Net Gain Units" be the next carbon credits scandal? We think so!

@MSDCrangers @MSDCnews Lots of wonderful beetles at SA13 too. But they won't have much to eat if @MSDCnews allow planning app 22/3049 to concrete over their home... #lovesomeofmidsussex #choosenature #beetle #insect

[SOFLAG 🍃💚🍃 Fighting for Nature in Mid Sussex @soflag4]

HUNDREDS OF CONSTRUCTION VEHICLES A WEEK - FOR 3 YEARS!
Coming to #burgesshill & #ditchling if @MSDCnews permit application 22/3049 for 260 houses on rewilded nature haven SA13.
Object here now https://t.co/EJZnRSTWkK

@theclotheslady That would be these people (sorry for late response!)

[SOFLAG 🍃💚🍃 Fighting for Nature in Mid Sussex @soflag4]

@MSDCrangers @MSDCnews There are wonderful wild flowers growing at rewilded nature haven SA13 that @MSDCnews plan to concrete over. This site is bigger and richer than all your other #bluecampaign sites, so why do you want to destroy it?? #greenwash

[SOFLAG 🍃💚🍃 Fighting for Nature in Mid Sussex @soflag4]

@JAshEdwards Community champions only when it suits them - planning to keep certain bits of Mid Sussex special, but not the rewilded nature haven and countryside between Burgess Hill & Hassocks. Remember these are the candidates who voted to destroy it... #choosenature #greenwash

[SOFLAG 🍃💚🍃 Fighting for Nature in Mid Sussex @soflag4]

#MoneyTalks in planning & development. And here's how you buy your way out of trouble when destroying a nature haven full of native wildlife - buy yourself some BNG units! Everyone profits - apart from the animals, they'll all just die... #greenwash #Burgesshill #biodiversity

[SOFLAG 🍃💚🍃 Fighting for Nature in Mid Sussex @soflag4]

@MSDCnews And make sure you remember which candidates wanted to destroy rewilded nature haven SA13 when you go to vote... #choosenature #makeitcount

[SOFLAG 🍃💚🍃 Fighting for Nature in Mid Sussex @soflag4]

We know who is destroying them @Thakeham homes ripped ours down, when trying to make more space for their houses. When are the government going to take this seriously and start issuing proper fines & custodial sentences to CEOs of eco vandal housing developers #greenwashing

EXCLUSIVE - the demise of the great British hedge . Who is destroying them and why? @Channel4News tonight.

[SOFLAG 🍃💚🍃 Fighting for Nature in Mid Sussex @soflag4]

@MSDCrangers @MSDCnews Yes our beautiful nightingales are starting to sing, would you like to come and hear them? It'll be the last year they'll be here, as @MSDCnews agreed to bulldoze their breeding ground. So no rare wildlife, just more photos of common plants then #greenwashing #natureinmybackyard

[SOFLAG 🍃💚🍃 Fighting for Nature in Mid Sussex @soflag4]

@MSDCrangers @MSDCnews @BurgessHillTC @FOBHGCN Why not ask your friends @PersimmonHomes if you can take a walk around the Folders Lane fields that they want to bulldoze. You'll find much more exciting stuff than hedge garlic there. It's a special place we bet you've never even visited #greenwashing #natureinmybackyard

[SOFLAG 🍃💚🍃 Fighting for Nature in Mid Sussex @soflag4]

@MSDCrangers @MSDCnews @BurgessHillTC You are kidding!! Our endangered nightingales have just returned from flying thousands of miles to nest on the folders lane fields. Where will they go next year when you demolish their rewilded haven... ? Wisden Avenue? It's a joke! #greenwash

[SOFLAG 🍃💚🍃 Fighting for Nature in Mid Sussex @soflag4]

@midsussexgreens You campaign with pledges to challenge greenfield development. Will you commit to saving rewilded nature havens SA12&SA13 in Burgess Hill at Planning? They've a biodiversity net loss of 40%! 5,000 residents have signed a petition against this, what will you do?

[SOFLAG 🍃💚🍃 Fighting for Nature in Mid Sussex @soflag4]

@Mid_Sussex You claim to protect the environment in Mid Sussex. Will you commit to saving rewilded nature havens SA12 &13 in Burgess Hill when they are voted on at Planning Committee? They don't achieve biodiversity net gain or support Government planning reforms.

[SOFLAG 🍃💚🍃 Fighting for Nature in Mid Sussex @soflag4]

@MidSussexLabour You pledge to support the environment. Will you commit to saving rewilded nature havens SA12 & SA13 in Burgess Hill at planning? Both are hugely damaging & will cause 40% biodiversity net loss. 5,000 residents have signed a petition against this, will you listen?

[SOFLAG 🍃💚🍃 Fighting for Nature in Mid Sussex @soflag4]

@midsussexld You're campaigning with pledges to support the environment in Mid Sussex. You've previously supported us to save rewilded nature havens SA12 &13 in Burgess Hill. You know the massive harm they will do locally. Will you commit to saving them at Planning committee?

[SOFLAG 🍃💚🍃 Fighting for Nature in Mid Sussex @soflag4]

@MSDCrangers @MSDCnews Almost as interesting a juxtaposition as @MSDCnews support for both the rewilding @blue_campaign1 and the destruction of rewilded nature haven SA13! #greenwash #lovesomeofmidsussex #burgesshill

[SOFLAG 🍃💚🍃 Fighting for Nature in Mid Sussex @soflag4]

Interesting piece highlighting the problem…we have nearly 5000 local people opposing building on our Folders lane fields. The national park oppose it for fear of ruining our picturesque countryside, yet certain district councillors still support it… https://t.co/RhixiU2if3
