It issued the following statement:
"TEA warns Worthing Borough Council, the West Durrington Consortium and the Somerset family that they are really in hot water over the Titnore controversy. Trouble is brewing locally, with people's patience now severely strained and growing numbers being stirred into action. These residents are no mugs and would be off their trolleys if they allowed their sweet heritage to be milked for profit by developers taking lumps out of the countryside. TEA urges all those behind the development not to let the bad feelings stew further and to abandon it now before the situation boils over."
