Clyde Quarry - Again!

[Bobfly]

Reading some of the background it seems that they have an entry on the landscaping side since that was a reason for rejection before and so modified proposals can amend the design and off you go again with another application and a claim to have addressed that objection.
It is a war of attrition dodging in and about the local plans and the regional planning policies.

[Wildfisher]

It is indeed a war of attrition. There is little point in getting worked up about these things; politics and  money will win every time. That's just a fact of life now in Scotland. If you don't like the latest quarry, windfarm or salmon farm you can always vote with your feet and spend your hard earned leisure money elsewhere.  C'est la vie.

Fred, that does seem to be a very defeatist outlook.

Things will never change unless people stand up and fight against the system. Surely we should be advocating fighting harder not giving up. It may not be possible to win every fight, but if one application goes through next time we need to fight harder recruit more people.
