Grandfathers Rights ! Posted: 9/3/2008 3:24:39 PM
There is apparently an online petition lodged with 10 Downing Street established to try to protect established activities etc from people who move into the area and then try to get these activities banned or severely reduced on the grounds of nuisance etc. This can affect motorsport (racing and rallying) as well as flying clubs, cricket clubs, golf clubs, church bell ringing , even animal noises, cows , sheep etc - you would be amazed at what these "incomers" try to get banned. "We the undersigned petition the Prime Minister to introduce a green paper proposing ways, that, where complaints have been instigated by resident(s) against a long standing activity (for example, church bells, sports facility, local airfield and similar), and where residence has been taken up since the start of that activity (providing there has been no significant increase in activity), a presumption should be made to protect the continuation of that activity and reject such complaint." What is your perspective on people moving into an area and then trying to get an injunction on church bell ringing, for example? Is this fair? Should they be allowed to get away with it? Would you be one of the objectors, and if so why ? You may not be surprised to learn that the precedent for this was set in the 1890's in Victorian England, when the local gentry hed far more rights than the lowly working classes .... Petition is here if you feel the need to sign it by the way : petitions.pm.gov.uk/livewithit/ Obviously, as I am not allowed to post links (on pain of another ban !), you have to copy / paste the above , but you do need to put " http:// " before it ...

If it wasn't for that nuisance noise, that has been here a damn sight longer than us, and the locals enjoy" Get better Double glazing you evil gits!

I have to sign up for this one.... I have read stories of people moving from the city to small villages for peace and quiet and then getting the local campanologists banned.. WTF!!! and of people buying a house near Heathrow and complaining of noise from Aircraft. People moving near to farms and lodging complaints about the smells of animals and muck...... Squirt them with fox urine and hunt them down with a pack of dogs. Ruffy
