Things that spring to mind are what’s behind the scenes at Gatwick, referencing a second runway, housing and local land developments, the lack of social housing as quotas are often reduced for other benefits, the problems of local flooding, and keeping us posted on local fracking ideas - just to mention a few.

Perhaps this could help restore his current position when it comes round to the time to vote for us local residents.

TERRY SLADE

Cavendish Close, Horsham
