Although not an on-line moorer I have signed too. I understand what BW want to do, but I don't like the draconian way they are going about it or many other things, vis- auctions.

BTW I now understand the attitude of some who attended the protest I helped organise at Hawkesbury. They said, "We're doing this for the waterways NOT BW!

I presume that before beginning this action BW have removed every unlicenced boat and bridge hopper in the same area?

Odd you should mention that!

I sent a letter to the general manager of East Midlands Waterways, concerning the closure of moorings at Beeston and Sawley. I made specific reference to illegal unlicensed boats on linear moorings. Her response was that the problem of unlicensed craft was an "entirely seperate issue.". :rolleyes:

I would have thought it could be argued that the actions that BW are taking is contrary to the 2004 Housing Act, which gave increased protection for Gypsies & travellers etc.

 

priority list in descending order

illegal immigrants

junkies

theives

gypsies

new age travellers

tramps

cockroaches

boaters

snakes belly

smokers

:rolleyes:

If BW get away with this, then I wonder what the numpty's will come up with next. No thought of the consquences to us livaboards. It's annoying when we see the unlicenced boats wrecking and littering the towpath and nothing is done to remove them and here we are fully paid legal moorers who keep our mooring looking tidy with flowers and plants, being evicted.

 

I thank you who are supporting us, please keep your support coming.

 

Thanx
