I AM talking about the plan of progress for St Helens.


In the media we have seen organisations spring up to oppose the plans along with placards and protest marches. Very little voice has been given to any other view.


I’ve found that if you try and hold a discussion with a different view to these fiercely held positions you are derided (I was actually advised to move by a woman because I held a different view to hers).


A civilised discussion involves respecting each other’s point of view.
