funny how many topics get side tracked, this one from a simple request for a pro speaker and a no speaker,
also the various assumptions/views from various people on/off topic
personally think caver mark? summed it up if Pro/No campaign cant provide two speakers so they can answer Q & A, then a speaker who can present the reasons for/reasons against so at least the CHECC attendee's can make to the best of the information provided an informed view.
to go off topic the view that CROW act includes caving is only an opinion so far from a QC, it is not the view as yet from DEFRA
to say this come unexpected, maybe it has arrived sooner than expected but the fact this issue has been discussed for so long on here and no doubt by individuals would say it was only time we got to where we are now.
and as to voting and % whether this vote or General Election why is it only 1/3rd (approx.) decide to vote, apathy, lack of understanding, forget, who knows but like someone says it is how democracy works in the UK, like it or not,
I wonder if instead of a yes/no vote it should include another box undecided,
