NCB in 3...2...1
I know what the WAG are against, but what are they actually for?

Would be brilliant for the east Mozz, quality Jobs, decent Wedge and a transport link as a Brucie Bonus. It's that good a prospect, the Welsh Gov. will f@ck it up without doubt and it'll end up on the other side of the Severn.Quote:

That said i hope it does go through and that the business case is compelling enough to overrule the damage to the SSSI.
I was surprised that one of the plane included a 15 storey building, surely that will just sink into the swamp around there
Suppose i better ask what an SSSI isQuote:

The Labour run Cardiff Council have been purporting this will be a new 'thing' for years - usually at local election times. And it has never happened - and looking likely it will never happen. Mainly thanks to a dodgy Labour run council team - Caro Wild , Hugh Thomas and others.Quote:

Some kind of balance between building for the future and protecting the environment and plants and animals is the only way to sort these things out
The M4 relief road would have screwed up the environment so it was right to reject it but improved road and rail links are obviously going to have to be provided , in some way
another article about it on BBC news, someone is really pushing for this
