Yep, agreed, the petition is worded badly. Stuck it up here and signed it as I believe the principal and size of the proposed development is wrong.
Like yourself i have no problem with redevelopment but a building of that size will be a blot on the landscape and visible from all of Swindon! |

If the issue is important to you and you find the wording troublesome, why not start your own?

If the issue is important to you then the wording shouldn't make a difference

Can I make a petition to move the snob to Penhill or Peckham. It would be wonderfully ironic.

That too. Surely it could be in Chinese, the end goal is the same. |

Unless I'm missing something, it's the accompanying article that contains the irrelevant and counter-productive references to other places and the potentially inaccurate allegations about the adver and the architect. The actual petition seems reasonable enough and surely that is what you are signing?

The snobbery from some of the Old Town inhabitants amuses me, as such that petition (and its creator) can go fuck itself. I hope they build a crack hovel in its place.

I don't feel strongly enough to start my own petition(i think there are more important issues in the town anyway)
And I don't feel strongly enough to sign a petition created by such an individual.
This proposed development will not happen anyway.

We'll probably get to see the real plans tomorrow when the Adver releases their special report I expect. Sterling work.

Really, already? After shouting about it on Friday... That didn't take long |

They're going to 're-draw' the proposals. In other words, this was designed to fail and get the public against it. |

The latest update to the petition is even more self congratulatory and cringe worthy.
Pretty obvious he's still got a grudge against the adver imo
