VFM to meet with local MP on Friday
(October 19, 2010)Dr. Andrew Murrison MP is to meet visionforwarminster co-author
Paul Macdonald two days after the comprehensive spending review is
announced by the alliance of Conservatives and their coalition partners
in the House of Commons.
"My urgent concern is one initiative that I decided to take up
which would see more active play areas for eight to 13-year-olds," says
Paul. "I do not want to lose that opportunity altogether."
"As I have the opportunity to talk to Andrew I have added another
issue that I care passionately about. The future of local hospitals."
The MP has in the past raised the issue of the number of serious
accidents on the A36 around Warminster in parliament. This will once
again be an issue Paul will raise.
"I just do not understand why with the cost of each fatal incident
costing the authorities a six figure sum to deal with no progress is
being made on the road between here and Salisbury," adds Paul.
The MP has lived in Warminster and Paul says he hopes he will 'be conducive to listening''.
"I feel Warminster is at a major crossroads with regard to its
future which is why I joined Steve (Dancey) in launching our
visionforwarminster website," say Paul.
"I still feel very strongly that our town can make a postive
contribution to the defence industry so I will also be putting forward
our idea that the opportunity exists to creat a major
military-cum-civilian enterprise area.
"The job creation opportunities are there to be grabbed!"
