WHAT makes Nora Williams think she is one of a silent majority who agree with everything being done to our environment (Letters, May 7)?
I think it is far more likely that most people disagree with vast swathes of countryside lost forever to motorways, housing, Park and Ride and so forth.
Thank goodness there are still people and protest groups not afraid to stand up and be counted.
Someone protested years ago and we have them to thank for saving the city walls. What would York have been without them?
Maybe Nora Williams will be satisfied when this green and pleasant land is one great concrete strip.
Then she can stay and I shall gladly find a desert island where there is still some flora and fauna left to enjoy.
Mrs W Carter,
Marston Crescent,
York.
