Hi all so many of you may already know Elstow Pits in bedfordshire is up at risk again due to being sold for back filling for HS2.

There is a new petition out to postpone this work due to the current covid crisis and the amount of government money the whole project will cost - is it really essential at the moment!!!

Please sign away guys and gals

Didn't know about this signed 👍

I've just found out I'd signed it previously, sad to see that only 33,000 have done so, it probably needs more exposure.

Agreed. Just tried to put it on totally carp Facebook page, admins declined as it is classed as a political post what is the world coming to!

The plan is Fill this in for 20 million. Then put another 20000 houses on it for 200 million! What about the water column you are f'ing up around Bedfordshire mrGov???

Don't think I'd fancy a house on a shed load of backfill

loads of houses are built on landfill or old rubbish tips. Just look for the methane gas venting pipes everywhere and subsidence monitors in every road.

petition also signed

All that tells me is that that arsebook group is a load of worthless ****. Of course its relevant, it's angling heritage, tell the admin to **** off, go out with a bang.
Too many butt wad groups on there with little idea of history.

Signed by me and my missus, we have lost pits here in Denham next to Savay already to HS2.

It's a joke

Signed, but I doubt it will do any good, if hs2 want it they will get it, they seem to have the power to do whatever they like im afraid..
