@caron60167748 @PiddingtonNews @KemiBadenoch A share based on current figures of proportionality would equate to 0.14 not 1256 !

@IanMcFerran @PiddingtonNews @KemiBadenoch How did these few people “vote them in” unbelievable understanding of the voting system. Comment when educated.

Dame Emily Thornberry MP says victims of rape and domestic abuse are being failed yet recorded no vote on releasing prisoners early. Now Labour expects Piddington with a population 350. to absorb 1,250 unvetted single adult male asylum seekers. They can’t even

@SeanWill92 Constitutionally yes BUT that’s over 74, 353 voters. We are a village of <300 - wrong site wrong place

🌍 HOW A TINY OXFORDSHIRE VILLAGE ROARED — AND THE WORLD HEARD IT It started with Piddington. A village of only a few hundred people facing a proposal for asylum accommodation for up to 1,250 men at nearby MOD Bicester Site A. The village decided it would not simply disappear quietly into a government planning process. It roared. What happened next was extraordinary. 🇬🇧 BBC. Sky News. The Times. The Telegraph. The Guardian. The Independent. The Sun. The i. GB News. Times Radio. Channel 5. LBC. Then Piddington crossed the Atlantic. 🇺🇸 CBS News. CBS Mornings. The Wall Street Journal. Washington Examiner. Newsmax. Daily Caller. Sinclair’s National News Desk. Breitbart. Then it travelled further. 🇳🇿 New Zealand radio. 🇬🇷 Greek national media. And some enormous individual voices entered the conversation: Elon Musk. John Cleese. Matt Goodwin. Nadhim Zahawi. Edwina Currie. Allison Pearson. Eventually even the Prime Minister was being publicly questioned about Piddington. A local planning dispute had become a national argument about proportionality, infrastructure, consultation, democracy and whether communities have a meaningful voice when Whitehall makes decisions for them. Now councils and political parties are discussing legal challenges to the Government’s wider asylum-accommodation strategy. Think about that. One tiny Oxfordshire village. One roar. And a story that travelled around the world. 🌍 We never needed to be the biggest. We just needed to refuse to be ignored. 🐻 PIDDINGTON — THE VILLAGE THAT ROARS. #Piddington #PiddingtonRoars #TheVillageThatRoared #Oxfordshire #Bicester #Democracy #LocalGovernment #UKPolitics

@annaturley @ukhomeoffice @ChrisWebbMP If you are right and honourable go to Piddington to see what you are asking that village to do. How can a village with no amenities absorb 1250 humans. It’s inhumane for all concerned

@JeremyVineOn5 These could be used - BUT to drown a village with that many people is unbelievable. Also the site is question is a slab of concrete with a few warehouses on it. How much money will it cost to get water, sewage etc put in let alone the sleeping facilities???

PRIME MINISTER ANDY BURNHAM — COME TO PIDDINGTON. @andyburnham See what Whitehall sees only on a map. A village of 350 people. 46 children. No shop. No pub. No substantial infrastructure. Drive the fast rural roads — stretches with no pavement and no safe pedestrian route to the nearest town, six miles away. Now consider the proposal: accommodation for up to 1,250 male asylum seekers on the edge of our village. More than three times our entire population. Explain to our 46 children and their families how a development of this scale will work safely. Tell us where the infrastructure is. Tell us what the policing plan is — because when we asked, none was provided. Cherwell District Council has stated there was no prior engagement or consultation before the announcement. Explain why. You have spoken about giving places outside Westminster a voice. Ours is clear. 96% of those voting supported a referendum on our future. We are not asking you to read another letter. We are asking you to come here. Walk the village. Meet the residents. See the roads. Answer the questions. Do not make decisions about Piddington from Whitehall. 350 people. 46 children. One village that refuses to be ignored. We are Piddington. THE VILLAGE THAT ROARED. #Piddington #PiddingtonRoars #thevillagethatroared #powertoeverypostcode #bicester #oxford #oxfordshire #aylesbury #Banbury

@andyburnham @AngelaRayner Your silence is deafening.

@andyburnham - as you aren’t going to use Chequers why not put the seekers there? It’s already there, it’s already paid for - no burden on the tax payer!!!

The Government says it’s handing power back to every postcode. Except when that postcode is Piddington! When it comes to the proposed Bicester MOD Site A asylum centre, local voices, local democracy and local consent appear to count for nothing. You can’t claim to devolve power while overruling the very communities forced to live with your decisions. Piddington. The Village That Roars. 🐻🇬🇧 #LocalDemocracy #Piddington #Devolution

Today @andyburnham says, “I know what it’s like to be ignored by politicians in Westminster. I’m not going to make the same mistake now I’m PM.” 👆Please don’t ignore us, Prime Minister 🗣️ It is not too late ❌ Don’t make us your mistake @andyburnham #SavePiddington
