The best way of stopping this is to identify the builders (or if you are early enough planners and architects) and convince them not to build.

I have heard the rumours about HLS expanding but have not seen any evidence - from what i ? have seen they are in a horrific financial position. Where is the proof (or even the hint)

We can olny assume that they have seeing as there talking about work starting in a year.

and the moneys coming from £11.7m from the UK Strategic Investment Fund. On top of the £11.7 SIF funding for the project, GlaxoSmithKline has granted £10.9m; The Wellcome Trust has committed £6m; the Technology Strategy Board is providing £5m and EEDA will look to contribute £4m

It will house up to 25 companys so no dout we will be getting the worst of the wosrt scum i.e
Bayer Astrazenica ect.
