Bytheriver Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 Spotted in another place and worth listening to (30 minutes long - Broads specific at 20 minutes in) Would be good to hear reactions It was recorded before the election but just published. https://t.co/gFbKtJWJKE CNP website anyone can join https://www.cnp.org.uk/sector/about-us 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Posted March 11, 2020 Share Posted March 11, 2020 By coincidence I listened to this last night, probably from the same source. This recording in particular and the general feeling of seeing BNP referred to so much online, in the press and 'those' signs leads me to think that in many ways it's now just a matter of time. Repeat something often enough and it becomes true has reached what you might call tipping point. The interviewee at least acknowledged the specific navigation issues that applies to the Broads and that is probably the best we can hope for long term. For what it's worth I think that all the National Parks, The Broads and AONB will swept up into one big group and rebranded National Landscapes as suggested by Glover. Ironic if it does happen that the BA will have to have all those references to BNP reprinted to BNL Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bytheriver Posted March 13, 2020 Author Share Posted March 13, 2020 Surprised so little reaction to the Countryfile Podcast as it really sets the scene for the next stage in the "Evolution" of the Norfolk & Suffolk Broads - The Campaign for National Parks is a strong route to be able to influence how the National Parks Service (or whatever other name it may become as they clearly have the ear of DEFRA who's Officials will produce the papers to carry it forward but being London based they really do need well reasoned feedback.

rightsaidfred Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Sorry but I am not very impressed with either the CNP or its CEO, while she condescendingly admitted that the Broads are not a NP she then went on to try and tell everyone it was all but and anyone especially the BBC was entitled to call it a NP, sounded very much like she was someone else`s mouthpiece.

floydraser Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 I thought they were both rather pathetic. Both seemed too frightened to voice any kind of opinion and contributed nothing to the debate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshman Posted March 13, 2020 Share Posted March 13, 2020 Lets wait and see and not try and second guess! Methinks things like that are well on the back burner and stuff which tends to get further and further down the schedule usually means its likely to say in drawer gathering dust!

Fred My thoughts exactly, but at least an admission is an admission. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
