Sapphire McCarthy's last, passionate call to save the green belt near Handsworth, in Sheffield

Transcript

00:00This evening, local residents are meeting with our MP, Clive Betts, the head of the council, Tom Hunt,

00:06as well as our local councillors, to be able to ask questions about the proposed development of 90% of S13's green belt.

00:14It'll be ripped away without consideration for thousands of residents' opinions who've signed our petition.

00:22Whilst young professionals in the west of the city are crying out for affordable housing that's not being offered to them

00:30because the council has focused 44% of nearly all the green belt building in our postcode alone.

00:40Why should clean air, community boundaries and the chance to enjoy nature and all it has to offer be a privilege of wealthier areas only?

00:49Why? Unfair doesn't come close.

00:52And I think what we can see today is just a section of people who will disagree with these plans

00:59and believe the council need to reconsider their half-baked plans.
