Would this be Redditch that you are talking about?   Redditch was NOT castigated - there was considerable approval for the project. And it retains local approval.

Having looked it up, it was Redditch - and it may not have been castigated within Redditch and the surrounding areas, but it was certainly taken to task for even considering such a thing in the mainstream press.  Fair play to them for sticking to their guns, though - as I said, I personally don't have an issue with what is, for me, just a waste disposal task.

Thank you for replying. It was actually a few years ago.

When you say "the mainstream press" are you referring to those organs of integrity like the Express and Star?
Does Magna Carta mean nothing to you? Did she die in vain?

I think the headlines I saw on the quick search included the Telegraph, Guardian and possibly the Express - I think it's a subjective which of them is least deplorable, but you have to go a long way down before you can pick out the fine distinctions, normally....
