Ok so we all like to look at the trees But we need more housing in this area.
We all complain when builders try to build on green sites but this is an old brown
site and should be built on.
Do not be fooled by believing that the trees on the site are old and should be preserved.
No when the old derelict housing that use to occupy that site where demolished
trees where planted and it was grass over to keep the area tidy.
We all should be up in arms against all the litter in our streets and back alleys not
a few trees that are standing in the way of housing people in need of a place to call their own.
Fell the trees and move on.
Along the new motorways the highways and bye-ways planted hundreds if not thousands of trees
and over two thirds of them where destroyed by vandals. No one spoke out about those trees.
I say houses not trees and I am sorry if this upsets people but open your eyes..We need more affordable homes in this area.
Yours

yes of course people need affordable homes but they don't want to live on top of each other either and the truth is that there are thousands of square feet of empty accomodation around Manchester, especially luxury appartments. Cutting down trees is not sensible for environmental reasons, amongst others. If you want to talk about affordable housing then focus on bringing prices down and allowing access, rather than falling for the red herring of building building building.
