| Recycling scheme has lost its bottle | | 12:23pm Thursday 8th May 2008 | | I AM a resident of Whiteparish and an inveterate pub-goer (for the social aspect you understand), so I am blessed in that my village still just manages to provide enough steadfast clientele to hold the heads of the owners of three hostelries just above the waterline. |
| Underlying issues of the housing debate | | 12:13pm Thursday 1st May 2008 | | WITH feelings of Salisbury residents running high at the moment about the vast number of new houses to be built in and around this city during the next 18 years, I believe that we should look at the bigger picture as well and the government's overall intentions. | | Reader comment (1) |
| Who makes housing decisions? | | 12:16pm Thursday 24th April 2008 | | GIVEN the unprecedented level of concern about the Core Strategy and Land Assessment housing plans, a village meeting was called by members of the community of Whiteparish. |
| Recycling policies are a resounding success | | 2:43pm Thursday 17th April 2008 | | MY sympathies go out to those who have written to Postbag recently about our recycling policies, and to others concerned about household
rubbish collection. |
| South Wiltshire set to be swamped by houses | | 3:06pm Thursday 10th April 2008 | | We are still trying to recover from the shock of discovering that our village of Firsdown (with only 256 homes) is being targeted for a staggering proposed increase in homes - an additional 2,500, one fifth of all the extra homes proposed for the entire Salisbury district over the next 20 years. | | Reader comments (3) |
| Gurkha veterans do not deserve to be deserted | | 3:03pm Thursday 10th April 2008 | | I HEARD on the news last week, with growing disgust and incredulity, that the government is going to deport those wonderfully loyal, courageous and proud Gurkha soldiers who have retired here after serving all their working lives in the British Army. |
